Doom 3 and Vista problems

Bony Maloney · 1 Jul 2006 at 19:40

Anybody running this OK. I can't get it to run. I am using the latest Vista Beta Forceware drivers. If it is running for you did you have to install DX 9c (although Vista comes with DX10?)
Thanks

i didnt think Vista came with DX10 as DX10 wasnt near ready

If I run dxdiag it comes up as DX10??

just curioue but could you not try nd install DirectX 9 and see what appens? i.e.e see if i will install any missing components that may help.

It took about 2 secs to install/update runtime components, so I'll pressume it didn't need to update much, although there are no viewable file details in DX.
I have got Quake 4, Sin Episodes, Half Life 2 and Fear all running great. Doom 3 will install but will not load and I have the Far Cry demo installed but it looks pap <-- could be drivers, but I have seen reviews of people playing Doom 3 on Vista. I am playing the Demo though?
