My voodoo 3 does the exact same thing until I install new drivers. I dont know much about the TNT2, but I would say get the newest driver for it.

Formatted what?

i dl a glide wrap but it still doesnt work

What Glide wrapper? Quake 3 uses OpenGL.

Get rid of the Glide crap, download and install the latest detonator drivers, re-install Quake 3 and apply the 1.17 patch to it.

Mine (Vooodoo 3 2000) wouldnt work for q2 for the default open gl Intil I downloaded lastest drivers. Try downloading latest drivers for your videocard then try using open gl again.
