Default Doom 3 Win2000 + XP Only. - 07-28-2004, 07:06 PM
Just in case anyone didn't know, as I've just found out......

DOOM 3: Windows 2000 and XP

Well there have been rumours flying around lately that DOOM 3 would not be able to run on computers that have Windows 98 or Windows 98SE as their operating systems. Since we here at planetDOOM dislike rumours in all shapes and sizes, we went straight to the horses mouth so to speak and asked Activision themselves. The reply we got was that it is confirmed and indeed true that DOOM 3 will only run on Windows machines that have windows 2000 or XP and not lower. So there you have it, looks like some peoples upgrading woes just aren't quite over yet.

Damn my 'M.E' disability

i ran me on my old computer, i didnt have any problems at all and it was just like 98 so i didnt have a problem with it. but i have to say windows xp is awesome...ive had no problems at all with it and i love the interface, if your still running 98 or me and dont wanna pay to get xp just "aquire" it some other way.
