"General Protection Fault" error on start up after OldUnreal Patch 227i

Post by Mayshus »

Hello,

Today I bought Unreal Gold from Steam. Works great. But after installing the patch, I get a "General Protection Fault" error message when starting up. Crash occurs even after disabling DEP for non-Windows essential programs.
I've tried every video and audio renderer option. Any guidance would be very much appreciated. I recall having a similar issue when trying to use GMDX for Deus Ex, but I cannot remember what I did to get it to work.

Try the 227j patch:

Only the people that do nothing but criticize don't make mistakes. Do things. Make mistakes. Learn from them. And screw those who do nothing but throw poison and criticize.

It looks like you're using "Direct3D" render device, which is D3D7. Try OpenGL or D3D9.
