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

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.

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