so, when I launch ut it doesn't start, so I've to launch another time to run it.
After first launch, I find ut process active among the other processes, if I stop ut process and re-launch it Ut starts normally.

Someone knows why?

Hope I was clear to explain...

Just going on a hunch, do you not turn your computer off periodically?

As I always say, the more specific you are, the closer might get to solving your problem. For example: What operating system do you have and what version? What patch do you have? What renderer are you using? Have you tried with others? Are you on desktop or laptop? What brand and model? What GPU? Have you tried with a clean version of UT on another folder?

My crystall ball told me: It is gameux.dll issue.

The version number is usually found on the top right corner of the main menu.
You could try patching to 469c, that is what I use, fixes lots of issues. But some will not even go near it, so...
As mentioned before, try a clean install on another folder, no mods, no extra maps, and see if the issue persists.

Also...don't know where you have the game installed but it is recommended outside the "ProgramFiles" folder. Preferably at root.
