[loeschi_justin]

do not work :( amd catalyst mobility cant be downloaded because incompatible hardware/software.

[Wolfwood]

Contact the support of your laptop's maker...they can try and help ya out there...

[jxck.p_]

well i have a windows 8 64-bit system but i works fine,the minimum processor type is pentium...what CPU do you have? xeon, i3 ,i7 3820K.if i dont help or nothing else helps maybe the game just is`nt compatible with your PC...

[jxck.p_]

by the way my pc is an alienware aurora windows 8 64-bit intel i7 3820 extreme processor and has a 1TB harddrive...

[jxck.p_]

another solution is to toggle your openGL settings to fit the requirments for DooM 3 BFG

[loeschi_justin]

i have a pentium core i5 third generation

[loeschi_justin]

tnx i try to toggle my opengl

[Woofah]

Maybe run the game in Win 7 mode. That might help.

[0risk0trust]

What you're facing here is clearly a driver problem.

ERROR: 0:? : 'gl_FrontColor' : variable is not available in current GLSL version ...

It means you have the wrong version of OpenGL, which is a graphics card driver.

[0risk0trust]

What to do?
• Go to the official website of radeon - which is "AMD" if I'm not mistaken - and update your graphics card drivers;
• Or, if this does not work, read more here: http://www.opengl.org/wiki/Getting_Started (under paragraph "Downloading OpenGL")

[loeschi_justin]

i found out the reason :) just open the catalyst control center and then switchable graphics there u search for doom n chose higest performance

[macht7]

Where is this file "catalyst sontrol center" i cant get the game to work on my windows 8 and am trying to get it to play

[macht7]

I have been trying to get this to run for 4 hours. please help!
