Hi!! By looking at your problem I solved mine and maybe this will solve yours too. I also have a GF4 Ti but its a 4400. I saw you said you enabled FX emulation with aTuner. I did exactly the same to get the Doom beta to work. So what I did was simply to turn it off (I downloaded the latest aTuner so that it would be compatible with the new driver I installed) and now, bingo! Doom3 works fine :) Make sure your turn all type of emulation on and maybe it will work for you too. Good luck!
