I recently bought doom3 and it looks lush, despite running off an ATI card (yes we all know the great nvidia/ati issue here but i wasn't gonna buy a new graphics card for a damn game) i have managed after some tinkering to get it running pretty smoothly...but there's one problem. at random points during play the game just closes down. just to give you some idea, i haven't even got to the 1st mission yet, so its a fair old problem. usually something like this would relate to a driver issue, but ive got the latest driver for the radeon9000 mobility in my laptop. i've patched the game with the v1.1 too. i don't know what to do.

can anyone please help?

how about you try and tell me, you need DX9b but why using old technology
Oh yeah, the game supports Win XP and 2000 only, even there is a crack for Win98 but it doesn't run stable.

[font=Times][size=7] i have had problems with doom 3 just shuting down during random times. but i think i got a pattern to it, it cuts off when a major event happens 4 me. like in the beginning when u have the boxes fall near u getting up 2 mars city. i have delt with this problem by simply saving after every corner i take pretty much. its annoying, but the game seems to run longer and not crash as much. i have made my way to Alpha Labs 4 with this proplem. 8)
