Unreal Tournement and Win2k

Eliteman
I have UT working fine on my system with no patches installed. . . so if you are having trouble this might help also Mechwarrior 3 works fine and Quake 2 and glQuake 1, but if you get an error message at the time of install like I did with mech3 just ignore it and the game will setup.

UT crashes Win2k when it exits!

Heifetz
I just installed UT, upgraded it to 405, and also installed the V3 drivers from Chameleon's site. Everything works ok, except, when I exit from UT using the menu option, it TOTALLY crashes Win2k. Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't even respond, so I have to do a manual reset.

Rollcage, voodoo3, win2k

Reaper_uk
Has anyone got this game to work in win2k yet? i've tried in both RC2, RC£ and the final version of win2k pro, but it never works. The frontend loads and i get all the way through the options until its starts loading the race and then it just quits back to the desktop without any errors or anythings.

ironman666
i am having a really weird prob with the sidewinder gamepad, win2k, and madden 2k. windows detects my joystick just fine and it runs fine in the tests. but in madden 2k the joystick doesn't respond properly and it looks like madden 2k is detecting it as a gravis pad.
