win xp

how can i get this game work.

i renamed the opengl32.dll but when i start the game i get an "Hunk_Alloc - Bad Size: -216" Error

does anyone know how i can make this game work ???

This is what I found looking up google, Seems to be related to memory and not video

"Hunk_Alloc: failed on x bytes" or engine runs choppily with flickering disk icon
Try allocating more memory for the engine by adding the command line option Heapsize (Memory Allocation).

Hexen II: normally uses half the physical memory in your system for its heap, but not less than 12 Mb and not more than 22 Mb. You can override this with "-heapsize n", where n is the amount of memory to allocate for the heap, in Kb. For instance, you would type "-heapsize 16000" to use 16 Mb of RAM.

Have you tried the starting Hexen 2 Safe Mode or Very Safe Mode?.
