twitchey,
I think it is a problem of your video card, too.
From your screenshots, probably, your video card is saying "I don't have enough capacity to process it. I give up!
".
Geforce MX420 was made for
DirectX8.1.
Sufficient performance cannot be shown though MX420 is able to be used for
DirectX9.
The function of DirectX9 which is not in DirectX8 is compensated with software.
For regrettable, please use a video card which was made for
DirectX9.
A video card which can support DirectX9 full is a requirement of UT2004 game.
Do you want a light version?
