crashing with Quake3 based games

for some reason, all games that i have played on my computer that utilize the Quake 3 engine (Quake 3, Team Arena, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and now JK2), whether in single or multiplayer eventually freeze. the problem should not be with my graphics card because i have latest drivers (Geforce 2 MX 400, updated today). anybody with the same problem or some help? plz?

I have the exact same problem, and have been obsessing over this issue for over a month. I have tried everything in these posts, have tried updated drivers, older drivers, nothing seems to work. I even as a last resort sent an email to Lucas tech support, after the their basic recommendations they could not even give me an answer.

 

I haven't given up yet. But with my knowledge of PC's this is probably a Video Driver issue with win XP.

Hi, I had the same problem with all Quake3 based games running under XP.

 

I have a Geforce 2 Mx400 - and was running using the latest drivers 28.32. My solution?? Download the recommended drivers as specified in the readme files - 23.11 from Nvidia's website.

 

Since I installed these drivers - I have not had one single freeze!

 

Hope this helps...
