I have tried many different resources for the answer to my problem, and no one has helped. if anyone can fix my problem i will send you a cash reward. this is how desperate i am. here is the problem:
I purchased Quake 3 arena, installed it; console says cannot load OpenGL subsystem. found latest drivers for my RAGE ATI PRO, installed them, found GLsetup, installed it. Game runs (runs a bit choppy, but thats only cuz my computer is a 99 model)—Had to uninstall Q3 for a while. after i decided to re-install Q3, i figured i would need the latest GLsetup beta, so i downloaded it and installed it. made sure my RAGE was up to date, it was. i installed the new GLsetup. attempted to run Q3, i get the same error in console, ‘could not run OpenGL subsystem.’ i have done everything and everything else to figure out why Q3 wont run this time around, but as i said, no one even replies to my questions because i guess i have a special case here. please help, i dont want my Q3 CD growing cobwebs!-
–below is a copy of what the Q3 console says, it might help–
