Thanks Ron, much appreciated. I got the game running without sound using your start command above. I checked out that website and I'm now downloading the point release - hopefully that'll fix it. Jeez playing Q3A without sound... can't hear the buggers coming! Thanks again Sharrea -- The box said "Requires Windows 95 or better" so I installed Linux.
