Help unreal Tournament 3 (Steam Version)

I just bought Ut3 in steam today. When entering the game i get the intro videos (Epic games,Intel,Nvidia.etc) Then it goes to the screen Enter Cd-Key. I have the CD-key info but there's a problem. It dosent let me type anything!!!! I know its not my keyboard because i pressed F10 and the console popped up and i could type. But typing anything in the CD- key boxes its a no go! Also when trying to click on accept or Exit game on the bottom right corner it dosent do anything. Only way i can exit is by pressing escape.

Vista 64 bit
P8400
4 gb ram
9800m gts

 

Maybe your computer is overheating
1. For steam games you usually activate before playing. On the bottom it says activate a product.
2. Overheating, use hwmonitor to monitor your temps.
3. Try running it in xp sp2 mode.
4. Add -novid to the target. Right click properties target add -novid or for steam right click on the game under the list, hit properties and click set launch options and add -novid. This should skip intro. Or if novid doesnt skip intro it might be -nointro.

GOOD LUCK POST BACK YOUR RESULTS

Thanks for the reply!

I tried every single thing and still nothing . Its deff not a overheat issue since i just tried out fallout 3 with max settings without a hitch. It has to be something with in the game its self. I tried re-installing and still the same problem. Heres a pic of where im stuck...



The screen isnt frozen the background moves and the background still plays its music. But i just cant type anything! Also the mouse still works because when i hover over Accept or exit game it highlights it.

 

okay then see if there is updates for the game on the website. IF this persist contact steam. Also update all of your drivers.

 

Have you tried typing the key and validating too ignoring the fact that nothing appears on the screen?

 

you should head over to epic forums....
