My crosshair seems very jumpy (when moving left/right, up/down etc it jumps too many pixels at a time for my liking) making it very difficult to line up on enemies accurately/quickly. I have tried altering resolutions/settings etc but it doesn't seem to help. Am I missing something obvious ?? Does anyone else have this problem ?

UT 2003 and similar titles are always best played on PC for one reason. The mouse. If you are not currently using the mouse then it's no wonder you are having jerks and keep losing. Even if you aren't very good with the mouse, just stick at it and you'll soon master it. The long term rewards are well worth the trouble expended.
Also, you won't stand even a mite of a chance if you play online without a mouse. So just get used to it, and then you won't have that jerkiness either.

PC Spec is not bad, XP1600, Geforce 3, 256mb ram etc.
I don't use the mouse, just keyboard - perhaps this is where the problem lies (sensitivity) ?, I don't really want to play without a cross hair if I can help it.

try turning the mouse sensativity down, that worked on mine...
What spec PC have you got Mr H?
I guess you could turn the crosshair off, if it is distracting.
I have tried a couple of crosshairs but still it seems to jump lots of pixels every key press ?? makes winning very difficult, I thought it would improve if I upped the resolution but it hasn't.
No, i cant say ive experienced it. Have you tried changing the cross-hair shape?
