i`m putting my money on your refresh rate. If u cant ovveride default refresh rates for certain resolutions from your graphics card settings (old Nvidia drivers had that) then get this little baby: http://dl.winsite.com/bin/downl?10000000036307 Very easy to use, all u gotta do is increase the default refresh rates in there. Be aware that if u got your desktop mode in 1280x1024 let's say and you play quake in 1024x768 then u have to change the refresh rate for the quake resolution (1024x768 in my example). Also u should know what HZ max rates your monitor supports, u don't wanna burn it down now, do ya?
If u got a good CRT monitor then go for 100 HZ in 1024x768 (even 120 if u want). If u play quake on a higher resolution than that use 100 HZ max, my recommendation. For lower resolutions than 1024 u can use with ease 120HZ.
Maybe this helps...
ps. next time u want some help, make sure there is no place for sarcasm around your demands

ahhh laptop. Then i`m not sure about those refresh values i gave u. On LCD it could be different, u should do a bit of googling before u decide on the values...so this display won't turn yellow aswell ^^

quake 3 opengl?
is it me or q3 doesn't use opengl ?
But explain q3's "vietnam" look. i really don't understand what it means. Crappy? well.. it is a 1999 graphic engine, what do you expect now, when you have things like Battlefield, Splinter Cell: Double Agent ( which uses pixel shader 3 ), Call of Juarez etc ?
About the framerate.. i had the same problem, untill i reduced the quality which my videocard provides. I have to do more tests, thou...
you can purchase a helping videocard ( for the new games ): Ageia PhysX
here's a quick taste of what PhysX is all about: http://www.ageia.com/physx/videos.html
But .. it doens't work with q3.
