@ Maria73

What graphic card do you use ?
Please post some info about your PC, it will make it easier to make some suggestions...

You have an S3 Pro Savage?
How old is that card? from 1998 or so?
There's no way you can run the game with that card, I think.

I am not sure about that. The Savage Pro may have a T&L unit, but it was reportet to be faulty.
Maybe 3D-Analyze can help here.
Painkiller was somewhat tricky to run on a Voodoo5, too...
I have the game at home, but had no time to test it yet. I will give it a try in the evening...
