Hi Reaper,

Which version of Catalysts are you using right now, and
have you tried a -window switch for UT to be able to
switch to desktop?

Unreal & Unreal Tournament are not made for OpenGL. You better just run it
in Direct3D. Looks also great.

Actually, Unreal and Unreal Tournament support OpenGL and D3D. I think the
D3D support is a wrapper for OpenGL calls because at the time Unreal was
being made, 3dFX cards and the Glide API were king. :)

Of course, the usual advice of install all the latest game patches, display
drivers, and motherboard chipsets apply.

If you want to try updating your UT OpenGL drivers, here's some links for
you. Just replace the existing files in your game folders:
