Hey folks, for the record after I installed WIN 10 on my main gamer my UT2004 stopped working. I thought something corrupted so I reinstalled just to get the same error again. Here is an article about what happened to me and to others and what fixed it.

I can't just easily start up my UT2004 anymore either but I think it is because I have two monitors but it did work just fine with 2 monitor when I was running WIN 7. Good luck!

Re: UT2004 and Windows 10
It could be that Win 10 has an issue with the old DX8 renderer.
There is an abandoned DX9 renderer in one of the official patches (3204) http://www.gamefront.com/files/2964103/ ... ows__Patch
It crashed for me, but it may work for you.
Renderer files only http://wayback.archive.org/web/20140301 ... D3D9Drv.7z
Is it a 64bit CPU and Windows 10 x64 ?
If so then the x64 3369 patch has a stable DX9 renderer.
