please some one help me

Ok I am sure you all get this alot but the FPS on quake 3 are just horrible. Once I start a game it runs fine for about 20 minutes or so then the frames quickly drop to almost 3 or less . My pc specs are 500 mhz celeron 128 megs of ram and a voodoo 3 graphics card and a cable internet connection. I am at the end of my rope here . Please any help would be greatly appreciated. There is nothing worse than getting fragged while stuck in a corner trying to turn around at 12 fps for sec.

try the wickedgl drivers (do a search it)

make sure you are running the game at a sensible setting
