Doom 3 was one of the first games I played after I installed W7 on my system.
I never had any issues with it.
Have you tried running it as administrator and/or in compability mode?

Haven't run Doom 3 on Win 7 but have run Quake 4 (same engine more or less) on Win 7 64bit and had no problems.

What error message are you getting if any ?

Reply to smokincola

i can only suggest what joedastudd said about running as administrator or in compatibility mode, otherwise re-install and try again.

Did you re-install the game after installing Win 7?

How do you run it in compatability / admin?

@clerk055, don't hijack somebody else's thread with an off topic question. Start your own thread if you want help with a problem.

I'ts not hijacking, it's relevant to the topic! Why run 2 identical threads in parallel?

I think you should look more closely at what's being said....

How is getting stuck at a certain part of a different game relevant to whether an older game will run on W7?

Clerk055 was asking about a problem with Medal of Honour Limited Edition not Doom 3 and the question being asked had nothing to do with compatibility issues, did you even see or read the post before it was deleted? :heink:

I don't think MrAnt even knows what he's getting upset about but maybe he'll come back and enlighten me.

NP, I thought it must have been something like that as your query was a tad confusing to me.
