Looks like your video card doesnt meet doom3's requirements. Judging from this error log, it looks like the rest of your system doesnt either. Just to be sure though, please post your system specs, particularly the processor type and speed, video card, and the amount of RAM you have.

i got the game as a gift so i dont know its requirments, but my prossesr is an amd athalon 1600+ and is 1.41 ghz the video card is a prosavage 8 and i have 256ddr for ram

Well, you can find the system requirements on the bottom of the box, or just look here: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=28223

But yes, your system doesnt meet the requirements. Particularly the video card.

well thats depresing. thanks anyway tho.
