Crewdawg 0 Posted November 13, 2000 Hi Everyone! I'm new here and have a question for you. I'm currently running Windows 2000 sp1. When I run UT it plays fine until I exit, then I get a message saying UT has caused an error while exiting. Has anyone ever seen this before and if so can you HELP me!? Thanks! System: 650 Athlon 128 ram hercules GeForce ddr-dvi driver 6.31 UT patch 632 Share this post Link to post
Gerbache Kaznet 0 Posted November 13, 2000 It does that to me on occasion. I still haven't nailed down the cause, but it doesn't seem to be affecting the system too much. It's done it with every driver release (I have a GeForce) and with every patch to UT. I even upgraded to DX8 without solving it. I've settled on just living with it, but if someone else knows how to fix it, I'd love to know. Share this post Link to post
STi Sev 0 Posted November 13, 2000 If you're running AMD, update your AGP Miniport Driver- That fixed all my UT problems -sev oh yeah make sure you're running 6.34WQL Off. det3 drivers & the latest UT version Share this post Link to post
Crewdawg 0 Posted November 13, 2000 I reinstalled the latest miniport driver, and the latest UT patch. I am using the latest ref. drivers from nvidia 6.31 I think. The Error is still there. What do you mean by "WQL off"? Thanks again for the help! Share this post Link to post
ThC 129 0 Posted November 13, 2000 he didnt say 6.31 he said 6.34 WHQL certified. Get em at http://zoiah.m3dzone.com Share this post Link to post
Crewdawg 0 Posted November 13, 2000 What does WHQL mean?I went to Zoiah and down loaded 6.34 without WHQL.Is that the right one. Share this post Link to post
STi Sev 0 Posted November 14, 2000 Crewdawg WHQL means that the drivers are microsoft hardware certified. 6.31 is from nvidia.com. 6.34 are the same drivers, but with microsoft ceritification. I am running the 6.34 drivers; it's the best one right now. Share this post Link to post
Gerbache Kaznet 0 Posted November 14, 2000 6.34 are the same as 6.31 but with WHQL certification? If that's the case, in my experience currently 6.47 is the fastest driver set for the GeForce. I jumped by nearly 5 fps in UT with it. Q3A hasn't changed at all with any driver set since 6.18, but it's fast enough for me anyway, so I won't complain. Anyway, back to the first question, I'm running on a P3, so I don't think the error on exit is an AMD issue. It only happens to me in Win2k, but it's happened pretty much since I first installed it, so I just assumed it was a problem with the OS itself. Anybody have any other suggestions? I'm just going to live with it otherwise, since it doesn't seem to be affecting anything seriously. Share this post Link to post
Crewdawg 0 Posted November 14, 2000 I tried everything, the problem still comes up.If anyone has a better idea feel free.I think I will have to live with it for now though. Share this post Link to post
loki 0 Posted November 15, 2000 i had the exact same problem, all i did was upgrade my drivers(3dfx voodoo3) and upgrade ut to 436 and all gone. Share this post Link to post
Wolf87 0 Posted November 17, 2000 Hello, I also find 6.47 drivers with DirectX 8.00 final to be the best: Starlancer plays OK. Since you have a Geforce graphics card, try the following registry hack: http://www.geforcefaq.com/files/iopagelock.reg Pierre Share this post Link to post
Wolf87 0 Posted November 17, 2000 Did you try the new OpenGL driver for high detail textures in UT, found here: http://www.lokigames.com/~vogel/UT/ Share this post Link to post
DosFreak 2 Posted November 17, 2000 UT hasn't crashed like that for me in a long time probly pre 4.20. Share this post Link to post
STi Sev 0 Posted November 22, 2000 I've been getting that same problem! Even with 4.36 and 6.31 Nvidia Det. 3 drivers!! It gives a Application "memory not read" error after quitting unreal. I've updated everything if anyone has any ideas, i'm listening [This message has been edited by STi Sev (edited 22 November 2000).] Share this post Link to post
