See my ATI Catalyst Tweak Guide or Nvidia Forceware Tweak Guide for details on where to download the latest drivers and how to install them cleanly. The Latest Graphic Drivers: Since Quake 4 is so dependent on your graphics card (see articles at the top of the In-Game Settings section on page 5), make absolutely certain you have updated to the latest graphics card drivers. Display your FPS counter in the top right corner of the game while playing online, and if it shows a good framerate but you still experience laggy gameplay, then you can really start experimenting with the various net_ command variables.

If you can't launch the game successfully when UAC is enabled, you will need to run the game with full Admin privileges. Next, make sure you don't change your UAC settings after the game has been installed, as due to Virtualization this can change the location of the game files and settings.

If you want to read the game's manual online, run the manual.htm file in the same directory. Read through the list of compatibility issues and suggested fixes as well. Importantly, check out the minimum system requirements in that file, as well as the supported hardware list, since if any of your hardware is not supported or doesn't meet the requirements then you will experience problems with the game, or quite simply won't be able to run it. Official Support: The first place to look for official support details is in the Readme.txt file in your \Program Files\id Software\Quake 4\Docs\ directory.
