What I just learned is that you can't try to duck behind a box to dodge an Imp's fireball. Your head is placed at fireball level and the Imp gets a nice headshot on you.-Tok
I figure that one day a game will be released that doesn't need to be patched out of the box and the world is going to end in a flash of hellfire.
In case anyone is interested:
AMD 2800 XP
ATI 9600XT with Catalyst 4.7
1024mb 3200 RAM

Yes. Those imps are lookin' mighty spicy as well.
How far along are you?
When i went to install the 4.7 drivers i first uninstalled the old ones as per good practice. Well, when i restarted driverless and installed the new 4.7 drivers, Windows made the stunningly brilliant decision to auto-install a set of drivers more than two years old that overwrote the drivers I was manually slapping on! I've got the problem fixed now, so i'm hoping Doom 3 will work.

About half way through Alpha Lab Sector 1.
Past the half eaten dude that's chained to the ceiling where you run into the first maggots. I found the scientist and then got squished by a door, so I decided to call it a night.

It won't let me change my video settings, ever. I change them in the menu, hit Apply Changes and get the "these changes will take effect the next time you run Doom 3" message, but regardless of what I do, the changes don't take effect in-game, and appear the same in the menu. The game looks damned good enough that I couldn't tell at first, but I pasted a screenshot and it was in 640x480.
So, I throw myself at your mercy. Given that I have been avoiding Doom 3 posts until I could get the game, I am woefully uninformed as to tech fixes. GUIDE ME, HOLY ONES

Try changing them, then rebooting before running the game.

ArchAngel had this to say about Cuba:
So... what're the minimum (and recommended) specs for this marvel of modern gaming?
Hard OCP was saying something like a 1.5 GHZ or AMD equivalent processor and a decent 64 meg card to run it on the low settings which are still pretty nice.

I have the same card and it runs fine on high quality / 800x600.

Which are pinky demons?
They were the big pink ones with bull horns that would charge you in the original game. This time they are the bull-sized 'bulldog' looking creatures with robotic back-halves.
