I tryed modding the radeon 7.5 catalyst drivers. After installing like the instructions said, I restarted the computer, and nothing came up after windows started up. It didnt get as far as the welcome screen. There was a line of color in the middle of the screen. I than went into safe mode, and uninstalled the drivers and returned my computer to the state it was in before I had done anything with the drivers. Windows detected radeon 9200 card, after I had uninstalled the modded drivers. I decided it was a good time to try out Quake. Here is what I got. Q3 1.11 win-x86 Nov 24 1999 ----- FS_Startup ----- Current search path: C:\Program Files\Quake 3 Arena\baseq3\pak0.pk3 (3539 files) C:\Program Files\Quake 3 Arena/baseq3 ---------------------- execing default.cfg execing q3config.cfg couldn't exec autoexec.cfg ...detecting CPU, found Intel Pentium III ------- Input Initialization ------- Initializing DirectInput...

So far so good: After doing all that and the game doesn´t start check your baseq3 directory contains a file called "q3console.log" and post the content here. May also be possible that a few files are damaged. Good luck and reply if this didn´t help you at all. ---- Daniel Menzel www.efmenzel.de ----- back soon!
