I fully realize that WinXP has not been publically released yet(as in it's not finished and not being sold at stores) but I was wondering if there are any issues with Quake III and the new OS because after about ten minutes of gameplay quake crashes on WinXP for some unknown reason. Does anyone else use WinXP? And if so do you have this same problem? And can I fix it(don't suggest a different OS because frankly formatting and reloading ten times a day(exaggeration) isn't fun :-p). Thanks in advance.

Ditto. Don't think I will either, I'm pretty satisfied with win2000Pro/SuSe Linux at the moment.

I've been using XP for almost a month and havent had a problem yet with Q3. Except for the sblive driver problem everything has been surprisingly stable on XP.
