Quake 3 Arena & Windows 7

Post by cANTaIM »

I just installed Windows 7 on my machine, flew my Q3 files over from my Ext. HD and Q3 won't run. Started thinkin; is Q3 and Windows 7 compatible? Anybody had any issues with this? Thanks.

I have 64 bit vers. too, but what is Eyefinity? Do I need it to run Q3?

Quake 3 works fine for me.

Error messages? Have you tried a clean install from CD?

There's no error messages. The graphics won't load. Mmm, I think I'm going to just clean install it and see then. Thanks, all.

Oh, and Eyefinity? Holy... Wow that's cool. Are there any games out that actually have a surround-sight enviro. yet though?

Yup. Need For Speed Shift, Bad Company 2, WoW, a lot of games support it pretty well.
