Help with Diamond Viper V330

Hi

I can't get Quake 2 to run in OpenGL mode with my Diamond Viper V330 graphic
card with a Riva 128 chip.
I have tried to run it in all the OpenGL modes that are there but it ends up
running in software mode.

Is there a patch for it out there ?
Please help me out

Thanx

Joel

Yes.  The latest drivers.  If you have the latest drivers, you
might still want to make sure you have your Windows desktop set
to 16-bit.  If it still doesn't work, trade the card in for a
V550, I found that to be the best solution anyways...

This is a fact that Riva 128 has some problems, (but not much) with
OpenGL...
