I have text on my screen for msgs for the player, ie weapons remaining etc. Now I know I'm a big dumbo - how do I make sure the text is in the same place on the screen all the time. eg I just changed the fov and everything's gone mad.. cheers

Use glWindowPos, it sets the raster position in window coordinates. No reason to mess with matrices if you don't have to. It's available in OpenGL 1.4 and later.
