I would contact the server admins in the first instance. It may be coincidence.

Sometimes (daft) admins ban groups of IP's when they ban someone to try and counter dynamic IP's. Banning by IP is always daft anyway since you can share an IP if you live in a similar area, this is omething that has caused at one time confusion here at 22g in the past.

I can't honestly see why changing a mobo would initiate a ban. Afaik UTII has no DRM as such since that would affect modding so I can't honestly see that being your problem although I could be wrong.

Did you just chnage mobo or did you reinstall the game (and your other software) too?

just changed mobo over windows reconfigured everything so as it worked did not bother reinstalling, i cant get admin on ut3 server blocked my ip adress so cant even get in contact
