Quake 3 Disc Help
Hey everybody, I have been a part of this group for a little while now I just don't have Quake 3. Until today, I know it was on sale but I missed it... So I went digging through my dads disc's and found his copy of Quake 3 Arena put it in my PC and it popped up with the error that I can't run it on my computer because it's 64-bit (at least something along those lines). Is this a lost cause? Can I even play online with the disk still? Should I break down and buy it off of Steam? Anything helps!

Thanks,
Bota

JaMyZPunchThis Why u punch you? 8 Jan, 2016 @ 11:01am 
Hello there Bota!

I will find help for you regarding this. Lets see what fix does work for you.
1) You can follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOtrdb_6VwI
2) Try to install, but with compatibility enabled. Try windows xp sp2, sp3 or fewer. This applied to the installer itself.
3) If that doesn't work. Try to run Quake 3 Arena straight from the executable from your disc. It should run the game.
4) You can try to copy and paste the entire quake 3 folder from the disc into your hard drive and try like step 2.

Let me know if you can't run it after try this 4 suggestions. I'll help you out bud.
Cheers!
