Quake 1 was released in 1996. Hardware T&L didn't even exist, I don't think that's the driver's fault that a 90s game can't launch. Unless you're talking about the remaster.

I don’t think that’s the driver’s fault that a 90s game can’t launch. Unless you’re talking about the remaster.

The remaster replaced the old release and I explicitly said Vulkan, so obviously it's the remaster. You need to jump through some hoops to get the original DOS release these days.
