# Not there? That's really weird!?! Did you try adding them?
#Did this change anything?
#
#Apart from this.. well, can't find anything unusual in there...
#And otherwise, well maybe you could try to re-install the latest point-release.
#


Thomas, as i just recall:

- On my previous vid-card i had to install OpenGL apart from my video-driver to run Q3..
If you insert your Q3 cd... on the first menu (where you can select 'Install').. on the left bottom there is a tiny link that say's
GLSetup..

If nothing works... give it a try...
