Does not support the necessary features. Comon, I have a ati x1950.

I already read a lot of threads about this, and that's why I re-installed my video card drivers. Doesn't work. Re-installed Doom 3, still doesn't work. Doesn't Doom3 work with my video card?

 

I just wanna be able to play DM

Doom 3 should work just fine with that video card. I can't say what's wrong though, but I have hope that it's something fixable

[Jeb]

I am running a HIS Digital x1950 PRO AGP 8x card. I have found that if I use any drivers newer than 7.7 that all 3D programs are broken. This is especially the case with DirectX applications.

 

I've read that this is actually happening for more than just the AGP cards so it may be possible that you will need to downgrade your drivers to an earlier version. I can not say exactly what version you may need to downgrade to, but the 7.7 drivers were the latest ones that I could use without 3D and DirectX being broken.

Try right click and running in compability mode for xp. shortcut or exe should do it. Make sure your drivers are updated a long with direct x.

 

If that dosen't work do what someone said above. If THAT dosen't work, it looks like you're missing something from the game files.

[Land-Vogt]

Compability mode for xp is pretty much nonsense, as I already have Windows XP Thank you anyway.

I'll try with the older catalyst.

This is a half life 2 thread but it might help.

7.5 Didn't work, too :-(

[Land-Vogt]

Problem solved. There still were Drivers of a much older video-card on my PC. Doom seems to be pretty damageable when it comes to drivers.

[Unstoppable]

A full reinstall of software/hardware was the solution then.

[Komag]

A full reinstall of software/hardware was the solution then.

 

uh, no, I don't think so. He probably just did a fuller clean of old drivers, maybe using a "driver cleaning" utility. It certainly wouldn't call for actually pulling out the video card or anything like that.

[Unstoppable]

You don't have to pull out your videocard to reinstall it. Just go to the add/remove in device manager and uninstall it.

[Crispy]

I'd normally use "uninstalling a videocard" to mean physically pulling it out... but OK, if that's what you meant, I guess that works.

[jdude]

I've had a lot of problems with my card, it's the same as yours. I've had to return it and get a new one 3 times now, luckily futureshop is really generous when it comes to returns The thing really loves to overheat, despite my new fan.

 

One time I even had a similar issue to the one described on this thread, I got a new GPU and it cleared the problem right up, so I don't know what the issue was really, I just guessed it was something wrong with the card.

[Maximius]

Just a thought, but could my video drivers be affecting my LightWave installation? Some may remember me discussing how when I try to render an object in LW with textures applied, the program crashes. Perhaps I have outdated video drivers? Would that cause that sort of trouble?

[SneaksieDave]

Don't know for sure, but I'd say it's possible; on my system with good hardware (GF6800), Blender works properly, as does DoomEd. On my work/test system, which has some onboard intel shit card, I get redraw problems galore. They're both pretty much unusable because of it.
