Do you have the latest drivers for your graphics card installed?
- NVIDIA Drivers
- ATI Drivers
Also make sure you have the latest Windows Updates installed.
If you have more Doom 3 related questions. Why don't you try ask it at a forum about that subject.

i rememebr in a past thread someone had a problem with their game crashing...they opened their pc and found a lump of dust in the fan of the graphics card... lol maybe for you to?
what does reinstalling the game do?

Have you downloaded the latest patches and stuff from the doom 3 website or whatever, the ones that make the graphics on the game so much better? Try doing that, this may fix your problem in a way...
The game is supposed to be very dark in places, in some places, much darker than others...

but if its still dark when using the flash light then you have a problem

it looks pretty normal to me to be honest... When I was playing the game, it got that dark in areas... Might be a problem with your graphics card but I doubt it, if I were you, I'd just carry on playing... It will get lighter and darker throughout the whole of the game, so just don't worry about it...
That's one of my ingame shots... As you can see, it's really dark...
I'll upload another soon...
Just before I changed all of the settings and sorted out my graphics card ^_^
