The game does not startup, the screen goes dark and then it bluescreens with driver infinite look nv4_disp.dll, which of course means shitty nVidia drivers. The card is not overclocked and DX is updated with latest August release, and I have ForceWare 163.71 drivers.

My card is a 7800GT, plays COD4 fine but then just blankscreen and then bluescreens with UT3.

HELP!

(card is currently not OCd and I have reinstalled the demo, restarted etc...)

FIX:

First, make sure you are on 163.71 Nvidia drivers.

If you are an administrator, Open: Program Files\Unreal Tournament 3 Demo\UTGame\Config\UTEngine.ini
Otherwise open: My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3 Demo\UTGame\Config\UTEngine.ini

Change the line
bInitializeShadersOnDemand=False
to
bInitializeShadersOnDemand=True
 
the demo is definetly both dx10 and 9 because I tried to use the files that was installed on Vista to play it on XP, when I run the exe it was asking for a dx10.dll file

I fixed it, it was a problem with some .ini file, changed some shader setting from false to true.
 
what did you change?

This is wrong. The demo is DX9 only.
