Well this is as far as i got when trying to find your specs. What options did you take? Theoretically you should have no problem.

Doom 3 requirements are 1.5 GHz CPU, 384 MB RAM, DirectX 9.0b compatible 64 MB video card with OpenGL 2.0 drivers, 8x CD drive so the only thing that comes to mind is if you plumped for Windows Vista, and then skimped on the RAM.

Specs plx :D
If you are unsure then just goto start menu, click "Run" and type "dxdiag" into the prompt box.
