6800GT & Doom3
 

HAve jsut put in new 6800GT and booted up D3. Every time I try to leave the
game the PC totally freezes, same with Call of Duty. I can ctrl-alt-delete
out to desktop but then screen is WAY too bright. Driving me cuckoo! Anyone
heard of this before?

Try downloading latest drivers I had the same problem on my 6800GT and the
latest driver fixed the prob

Just to add, The same thing happened to me with my 6800 Ultra. Once I
upgraded Drivers, D3 exits with no problems. Also it used to freeze when I
tried to load a MOD. Now it doesn't.
I use 66.81 from guru3d.com

I use the 61.77 and I dont have any probs in Doom3 or Far Cry for that matter. I tried the 66.81 drivers, but it would
sometimes cause my computer to boot with no video.

I think this is also a problem associated with older BIOSes and running your
2D speeds at different speeds than 3D.
