I keep getting booted out of Quake II...video problem?

I recently reformatted my hard drive and now every time that I run quake II on my machine (online or single player) the program just shuts down and kicks me back out to my desktop. Sometime I can play 5 minutes before Q2 shuts down and sometime less than 5 seconds. It seems that it?s always when I move my mouse real fast like when I jump up and turn around in the air to rail someone behind me. It?s the only program that I am having problems with but it?s also the only graphic intensive program that I am currently running on my system.

It seems as though it?s a video problem but I?m not completely sure. I?ve got an old video card, a voodoo 3500, and had to install the original drivers because I haven?t been able to find newer drivers anywhere on the web. I also have an old version of DirectX loaded (6.0 I believe) and that may be part of the problem as well.

Does anyone have any idea what is happening?
 
I would say try your best to find thoughs new drivers.
Direct X shouldnt matter much if your running it in opengl. Your are running it in opengl right? And have you tried software rendering?
