Of course:

when I start UT I get the Intro. The Sound is o.k. but the Rendering
does not seem to delete old objects correctly. The same objected is
displayed at different positions of the screen without deleting the
old objects. The lights are just big white or yellow circles.

The game menu with the Unreal Tournament logo and the menu is
displayed correctly. When I start a practice session the weapon is
displayed correctly with all textures, but I cannot see any background
textures of the room. More or less the only thing I can see are big
white or yello circles which are probably lights. When I move arround,
the lights get "drawn" over the screen, but the lights are not deleted
at the old positions, so the screen gets more and more filled with
white. Sometimes the weapon turns black and you can only see a black
shiluette of the weapons. Firing makes the weapon apear again.

A strange thing happens when you press ESC and go to the menu
screen. Everything is displayed correctly there but when you go back
to the game you can still see the menu screen in the background. It is
not deleted. You can see big white lights in front of it and you can
see the menu screen through the lights.

I used the ut-install-436.run and an old Windows CD to install it.

I also looked at the UnrealTournament.log and found some errors:

I really got a lot of OenGL Errors. There are probably a hundred error
lines in the log file which all look like the error lines above.

I will try to play with the UnrealTournament.ini file. Maybe I get it
working when I turn of some of the options.

Thanks for your help,
Michael
