hey, i have a radeon 7500 and i had loads of lockups with RTCW. i could not play it at all until i heard about the temporary fix for the AGP/Athlon mess (i'm still not sure what has come of it). mem=nopentium fixed RTCW for me. before i could barely get into the game before it would freeze. now it plays fine (but does freeze very occasionally, so there is still something wrong). obviously that isn't your problem because you already have that going option. UT has always been fine for me, although a little slow running at 1152 in 24bpp. i've turned it down to 16bpp but then the graphics look worse.
