I’ve managed to bypass the I6/CoV-era ATIOGLGL.DLL lock/crash problems on my notebook (ATI Mobility Fire GL T2 card) by adding the switch -useTexEnvCombine to the shortcut that invokes COHUPDATER.EXE. That makes for less complex graphics (I now watch Margie’s screen with envy), but it works, and it doesn’t look all that bad.
The cost is worth not having the machine crash three or four times on load …
