    Ok...I'm sorry for posting another thread bout it lol

    My specs are in my sig...and i put it all back at stock. I reformated my HDD even, and install doom 3 and it WILL NOT work. I can play for like 5 mins then the screen just gets wierd looking, or it goes to black screen with and error message from windows...and I gotta close down doom. I put it on my friends computer and he just has a FX5600 256MB version and his plays fine..

    PLEASE PLEASE HELP

    Also, My friends computer has a 2.5Ghz AMD with a 5600 256MB version. When I run the hardware scan thing to find best settings, it puts his on high settings at 800X600. It puts mine at Medium Settings at 800X600, and considering my card is MUCH better I dont see why it should be doing that. Also when my friends game opens doors it is pretty smooth. With mine it jumps around and shit.
