I have no problem with Win2K and Direct3D games. OpenGL in Win2K is a bit iffy at best and is a known problem but I can play games using it. Never tried UT with it but Half-Life never posed a problem. I have Quake but always used Direct3D with it as well. If I remember correctly I got an error when trying to use OpenGL once before...I don't play it much.

BTW, I have a Radeon VIVO.
