It may be that there is something going on in the background behind your
Quake2 that causes this.  For example, if you have a dos window open in the
background while playing Quake2, and a textline comes up in the dos window for
some reason, and the window maximizes itself, you'll get the gray screen.  It
may have something to do with Qoole shifting around in the background, or one
of the dos windows popping up late...  I don't know if this info helps at
all...
