UT2k3 on G400Max?

[Invincible]

I have my G400Max in my system right now temporarily, and last night I d/l UT2k3, only to be teased with - well a black screen. It starts to load, then screen goes black, there is nothing that can be done except reboot.

Running win98 with 6.83(?) drivers atm

Anyone else having similar probs?

Black screen for me - Win2k Sp 3, G400 Max, Athlon 1200, 786 MB ram - as well. Log says:

Same here. G400Max on Windows 2000. Sad times!

[Rick]

Add another person to the list who's just getting that black screen. Even after the 8.1b download

[Invincible]

I wonder if the patch they're working on will fix it... they mentionned v3/4/5 compat. and 'other bugs' ... does that include us?

[MaxMax]

same prob here either, black screen and hard crash

win98se and directx8.1b , g400max with latest drivers, Intel Celeron 1300

also tried to modify ut2003.ini while setting everything to False but still no go.....

[MK]

Count me in ! G400 32 MB on Win2k SP2 and PD 5.72 is a no go.
