I run it under Win2k just fine.

The gamex86.dll has to be the one for the 3.20 patch and that is not the one
on the rogue disk.
When you install the 3.2 patch it puts the 3.2 gamex86.dll file in there but
if you copy *.*
from the disk to the pc you will over write it!
Thus if you or "one" overwrites it, you must copy the one in \Quake2\baseq2
to the rogue (or xatrix for
the reckoning!) directory!
Hope that helps.
