If I get the Doom 3 demo for my laptop, will it run. You've all seen my shots from BF2, CoD, and the un-Godly FEAR. More chances of getting a BJ from the Pope?
*note to self: get that bloody screenshots website setup, you fool.

*possibly*
But it aint gonna run quickly.
[edit]
I'm running it on a work laptop 1.5Ghz, geforce go card, and 512 mb at 640x480. It still stutters quite heavily.
I'm on a P4 2.66GHz, 512 RAM, GfX5200 64Mb. BF2 runs smoothly on all the lowest settings, HL2 ran on very low settings, but FEAR was a no-go. Halfway through the download, we'll see.
If it works, does that mean my chances with the Pope have increased?
If you get it, just turn off shadows, sure you'll lose a bit of atmosphere but it will run a hell of a lot better. when i played Doom 3 on my machine i only had
Pentium 4 2.4ghz
768mb 3200ram
geforce 4 4600ti
and i got around 30-50fps with shadows off, so i imagine you'll be ok.
I couldn't turn the shadows or effects off - the silly thing kept crashing everytime I restarted it. Ran ok, bit juddery. Didn't get very far, not even a weapon (although it gave me some bullets). Reminded me very much of Unreal 2.
Yeah sorry i was getting the doom 3 demo mixed up with another.
You really should update your drivers, uninstall your old drivers, reboot install new sparkly drivers. Theres something horribly wrong with your laptop if you can't update.
