vid_restart
Do a clean install. I highly recommend not mixing with a previous version of q2xp or any other ports. It is not advisable to use long paths to the game or containing non-English characters.
Install:
- unpack archive in to you fresh quake2 3.20 folder
- if you have a creative audio card you can delete openal32.dll from game folder
