I get kernel32.dll errors the screen flashes with textures in strange places etc and it generally crashes.


I had the detenator drivers
tried installing original drivers - no effect

"Tried installing the original drivers," as in "tried installing the drivers from the video card manufacturer," or "tried installing the Detonator drivers from nVidia"? If not the latter, try that.

Is q3a the only game that won't work?
q3a is opengl not directx

Try reinstalling opengl from the q3a cd
