Theres no such thing as a doom 3 demo, its an alpha leak. Problem could be your hardware isn't supported. Try all the obvious stuff, new drivers, disable anti-virus stuff and backround tasks. Try tweaking the cfg file, changing resolution, disabling some graphics options through the control panel.

I'd help more but my computer is wayyy to slow to handle anything that even things about being 3d, it just takes a big [-peep-] on my leg when it sees anything 3d. If it didnt I'd download that bad boy in a heart beat.

yeah, thats what i meant... the leaked alpha thing. i tried everything. i even read every post on here regarding doom 3 but nothing has worked. im running a g4 4600 vid card with nforce2 mobo. oh well, i guess i can wait.

I don't think it worth a try..because its only an alpha
the file is kinda huge, but even if you get in the game
there are only a few 'zombies' and like 5 minutes of map
you can explore. The weapons are not even finished. the
only weapon seem to have a decent degree of development is
the pistol and the shotgun.

after trying this doom3 alpha leak, the only idea you'll get
is "I need a better CPU" because this coming game is eating
your CPU resources like crazy

That demo was made for a specific machine and ATI/ID will hunt you down if they catch you with it.
