As well, in 1240x1024 it averages 7FPS. This sucks! What's wrong? I have a Visiontek geForce II MX. Other specs are below.
 
You sure UT doesn't have a software rendering option? 😉

J/K...

Have you installed the latest mobo drivers?

Viper GTS
 
Nope, I double checked, D3D, not software, is enabled. Build 338, I think. Mobo is updated, videocard updated, etc.
 
you are runing 428, probably. Also, 320x300 is PURE processor. I have a voodoo5 and a 800mhz thunderbird and i get 75...
 
Sorry I didn't clarify, but it is build 338 of the demo, not the full-version. But the low performance doesn't just apply to the UT demo, other games I have the same issues.
 
i have a PIII 500 and a voodoo3 2000PCI 143@175 and i get 51fps at 1024x786x16(or whatever it is)
 
The AGP Gart driver was what I meant when I said mobo drivers... If you haven't already, download & install the latest VIA 4in1 pack.

Viper GTS
 
Win98, not SE, with latest updates. I've been out of (up to date)computer info for quite a while until about a month ago, so I'm still learning. Where do I get those drivers?
 
Well, this is just a shot in the dark, but it sounds like your demo version is so old that d3d doesn't work correctly for your card... if possible try to get an updated demo, otherwise you may have to get the full version 🙂

I have a Hercules GF2MX on a P3 933 and it performs perfectly 🙂

Have you tried any other games?
 
I'll try all these things. I guess it must be UT demo specific, as in Quake III demo with demo001, I got 28fps 1240x1024x32, 34fps 1600x1200x16.
 
Wow I get an Average of 62fps in UT with 640x480x16
Sometimes it goes as high as 350fps.
You have poor performance in other games too?:Q
 
Go here and get the proper version. This is version 348 of the demo.

Also, you are not running in D3D mode. Even if the game says it is, I am 99% certain that you are running in software mode.
