What video card do you have? You'll probably find the drivers on the homepage of your card's manufacturer , e.g. http://www.nvidia.com , http://www.ATI.com . You can also find drivers for various cards here http://www.voodoofiles.com or here http://www.techspot.com/drivers.shtml

But I can't promise you the drivers will fix your problem, some older cards are simply not compatible.

I also have this problem, but it only showed up after I recently upgraded to Win XP. I have a Geforce 2 MX 400 WITH the latest detonator drivers from Nvidia. I the troubleshoot guide, it lists the working drivers for this card as win2k-xp 2311. So if I install that driver it should work. But where do I get it?

Talk about a comedown, and I don't even have the full game yet. Mys system is a P4 using an "S3 Savage 4" which was on the blacklist of unsupported cards. Worse comes to worst I'll just raid the baby's college fund for new card, unless somebody's found a way to run this puppy w/o %100 open GL support. What bugs me is that JK2 is based on the QuakeIII Arena engine - just like Voager EF, and that program ran well (without technical problems, I mean. Otherwise....). So far, I just have the demo. Has anybody had any luck running the game or demo on the Savage or any of the other unsupported cards?
