Doom3 & Vista

Anyone installed this game on Vista? Any solution for the freezes when selecting vertical sync? or the way it wont save setting changes properly?
This is an OpenGL game but I think OpenGL is only supported in my ATI drivers in software mode... any solutions there?

Tried running it as administrator? Look at compatibility tab of play properties and check that box under privilege level. Might help with saving settings...I don't use ATI, so I can't suggest anything there, but it is an openGL game, so no native vista support means support must come from drivers.Good luck, I've not tried it on Vista64, but it might be fun to fool with it.
