Had the same problem... if I tell what it was... you won't believe me! It
was the IRDA (ifrared adapter for cellular phone) when it was enabled GPL
was trying to open it as a modem... and was*** on the opening screen...
hope that helps...(probably not!)

There's a "Beginners Guide to GPL" which lists a whole series of patches you
can make:
http://www.slottweak.com/gplintro.htm
However, it omits to mention the most important one of all: the 3dfx cards
all have a bug in them when it comes to changing screen modes, in that they
corrupt the texture memory or crash.
George Smiley has written a patch that will fix this by preventing mode
changes, which has the bad side-effect of making the menu screens too small,
with pointer trails appearing at the bottom-right, but the good side-effect
of making the game work.
Sadly I can't remember where on the internet this is located, but I think
the file is called "Glide2x" or something like that.
Also should do the V1.2 patch from www.papy.com
