mouse. While playing the mouse hangs for a brief moment and then works
again, but leaving a mouse pointer on the screen. Apparently this also
happens under windows normally, but resulting the pointer to ...

Why is playing quake under Win.xp suddenly so dark that it s hardly
playable. Before under Win 98 I had a normal screen. Is there anyone who

It does not work even with setting the compatibility options.
