Does Doom 3 work on Windows 7 64-bit?
Does Doom 3 work on Windows 7 64-bit?
This link leads to the Microsoft download page for version 8109.
Thanks for the links. I downloaded and installed the runtimes but still can't start Doom 3!
I gave up on this for now unless someone finds a way to run Doom 3 on Windows 7 64 bit without patches.
PS: Another idea is to run Doom 3 in a virtual machine. I've seen it work before, but I haven't managed to get it running in a VM yet!
In the VM environment, Doom 3 seems to be unable to find the game disc on an optical drive, which prevents it from starting and running even though it was installed from the same drive? This is really puzzling.
Comments?
PPS: I'm having trouble launching Doom 3 in a VM because of insufficient graphics drivers or hardware. It appears the VM doesn't rely on system video hardware or software, only using vendor-provided drivers that are purely software-based and don't interact with the system video.
