SOF2 begins to start up, then suddely my computer decides time for a reboot.. The last thing I see on the console is it checking GL Extensions [ARB_Multitexture to be exact] which ####, Quake 3 uses that.

This problem occurs with various drivers for my video card, and continues occuring even with the video card underclocked [I usually run it at 190mhz, default is 166].

Any ideas? I have no major problems in other games based off the q3 engine and play rtcw for hours on end with this card.

Voodoo cards are not supported though they do work.
Your problem sounds more like a power issue.
Power supply not getting enough juice to certain parts of the board perhaps.
I'm not sure which drivers you're running but there is a link to drivers here somewhere that work for that card. However the driver issue would not cause your system to reboot.

What OS are you running?

not a power issue - New Antec sx1030 case [300watt ps]..

Other specs: P3 600 on an oem trigem mobo [uncertain of specs], 20gb 5400rpm seagate, 100gb 7200rpm western digital, 192mb ram, SB Live! 5.1 audio, Linksys LNE100TX NIC, etc..

I'm running it on Windows XP. Whether the video card is "supported" or not the game should run on it.

If im not mistaken wasnt the engine sof2 runs on originally BASED FOR 3dfx CARDS?

Just download opengl32.dll from somewhere and put it into the sof2 folder and your card should work. Worked for me atleast, I have a voodoo3 card.

well, now we're getting better

I renamed the 3dfxopen gl and put it into the dir --- Init completed, gray screen.. XP restarted 30sec later [driver lockup]

However, RTCW has a very versions of open gl in it's directory, I'll try those

ok.. Best I've gotten is one of the ones from RTCW kinda works-

Game inits.
Changes screenmodes a few times, ends up a gray screen
SOUND PLAYS
doesnt reboot.

Have to alt+tab and kill the process to quit game. lol

I have a win98se comp on network with a voodoo 3, tryed the opengl on it without luck [game crashes].

Could you perhaps email the file you are using?

Wicked would have been my next suggestion, but you found it yourself. Congrats hehe
