Quake 3 graphics problem

Post by gorillagorilla »

Hey fellas, I am new to this forum and I figured this would be a good place to get help on a problem im having.
I just reformatted my computer, and after reinstalling Q3 and updating it, and after several reinstalls, Once I boot it, the intro video runs fine, but once I get to the main menu, I can see the outline of the menus, and I can even click on alot of the available options, but its impossible to read or decipher. It is all like wires and blue and green and black, I have no idea what to do and I really need my Q3 fix. If it is important, I'm running on a GeForce 7600 GT, with an AMD 64 4000+ processor and 2gb of RAM. Please if anyone can help me out with this problem it would help, appreciate it.

first question someone will ask is if your drivers are the latest from Nvidia.

yes, my graphics drivers are the latest from nvidia, and i think it is important to note, that this is not just a Quake 3 problem, but for every game, including warcraft 3 and counter strike
