I just completed installing WinME and updating it. I also reinstalled UT2003 and the new NVIDIA driver V44.03 and found out that it has an issue with running UT2003 and supporting my V-card (GEForce MX 440 AGP4x). I recieved a D3D error when I tried to start up UT2003 and I figured it might have been a bad install so I reinsalled the driver and it still gave the same error. So I reinstalled UT2003 and came up with the same error. So then I uninstalled the V44.03 driver and installed the V43.45 driver and UT2003 started up right away and everything ran fine. So what's going on with this new driver from NVIDIA??

MY System:
Abit KT7 Raid MoBo
AMD Athlon Duron 1.3 Ghz
GEForce 4 MX 440
512Mb PC133 SDRam
40Gb IBM Deskstar HD

The Error From UT2003 @ Start up w/V44.03 Driver:

UT2003 Build UT2003_Build_[2003-04-07_17.42]

Do what it says and delete your .ini file (UT2003.ini).
The next time you start UT2k3, it will create a new one with the default settings, this MIGHT fix your problem.

LOL @ Gen. Ut2k3 rox now eh? Must beat the hell out of that 9500 Pro with 4xAA (or 2x even!) and aniso.

You keep bringing up my burned 9500Pro in every fuucking thread I go into. Do you really think I want to be constantly reminded?
Do you expect me to wallow in misery because I burned my fuucking card?
Do you think it's maybe possible that I can appreciate the card that I <b>do</b> own now?
Is it ok if I talk about my new card without you making a fuucking lame comment about me not having a Radeon anymore?
Enough.

Did it go up in a flash of smoke, or kinda just died a slow and horrible painful death?
