why is the game searching in your system32 folder for URT files? where do you have the game installed to?

So, isn't this solved yet?

I'm having the same problem: windows 8.1, up to date drivers (released yesterday), my laptop is fully capable of handling higher resolutions, but UrT crashes on anything higher than 1280x1024...

try re-installing the game to your desktop and deleting all the old files from the first installation.

BTW you should be more grateful, we aren't required to help you.

Well..... there are known issues with win 8.1, and they have popped up with the release of 8.1, Win 8 worked 'fine'.

Also: It is not recommended to update your graphic drivers on a laptop. Only do so if the driver was made available by your laptops manufacturer. Otherwise you have a more or less high chance to *@!# it up pretty good. I had it to happen that in the end i wasn't able to install drivers that had worked before....

Anyway, whats your monitors native res?
You also might want to try out windowed mode.
Sorry for my bad spelling - I am still asleep. :)
