Hey. Has anybody been able to get Quake 1 to work under XP? I'm trying to get the 1.06 demo to work (it won't do anything) with no luck, not that I've done much besides mess with compatibility settings. Thanks!

~sigh~
COMPATIBILITY MODES ARE FOR WINDOWS GAMES ONLY.
Now that we've got that out of the way,
thanks for providing us with your system specs as per the posting guidelines which are on the top of every forum.
ALSO,
there are WINDOWS PORTS. Like, Tenebrae. Use those.

Yes, it’s my fault.
