I have changed my operation system from 64bit to 32bit because The Opengl doesnt work in 64bit...

Re: Q3 on Win7 x64?!

its bullshit. iam using 64bit Windows 7 almost one year (3rd installation) and i have not any problems. W7 is almost the same like WVista so if you jumped from XP to 7 you may have dark screen. Try to switch r_ignorehwgamma. Or just change r_gamma (iam using "1.3" gamma value).
