This is often caused by having corrupt player model files. Try temporarily renaming your \QUAKE2\BASEQ2\PLAYERS folder to something else (this will remove all the player models except those that came with the retail version) and see if it cures the problem. It can also be caused by a PCI sound card or PCI ethernet card sharing an IRQ with another PCI card (known as PCI Steering).
