Hi,
I just bought doom 3 and installed it but I havent been able o get the game working. I keep getting this error message everytime I try to start it up:

Is there anyway to get this game working? Before i bought Doom 3 I downloaded the demo and taht worked just fine but I'm having problems with this.
Any help is really appreciated!
Thank You.

i think it has to do with your video card, check for updates for videocard from manufacturer, check for patch(s) from doom site, what directx you running, latest is 9.0c from microsoft

i don't think you are missing the file because it says can't load default.cfg, if it was missing it would say can't find default.cfg. try this as an experiment, load doom3 on a friend's computer(s) that is compatible to game requirements & see if game runs or comes up with error

I dunno what this problem could be, Ill can say is take it back were you got it and ask to exchange for another.
Let me see if I can't get this thread moved to CD-R forum, we might get better answers there.
Sit tight.

trulahall, get rid of ip address in your post than check for updates for your videocard that you didn't mention who made it, get latest directx 9.0c, check game site for patches, faq & system specs especially for video card
