Adding this patch results in the game asking for the Doom 3 CD-Key and it will not accept the key that was entered when it was originally installed from CD. The doomkey file has the original entered key (minus the last two characters) Starting the game with the internet disconnected makes no difference. Un-patched game runs without a problem.

This patch was the fix I needed to make Doom 3 work with Win7 64bt. It works great for me. Thank you!
Now for a side note for those having resolution problems getting Doom 3 to run at 1920 X 1080 etc.. you have to edit the Autoexec.cfg file in the Doom3Base folder.
For example:
set r_mode -1
set r_customWidth 1920
set r_customHeight 1080
set image_lodbias '-1.0'
set image_anisotropy 0
set r_multiSamples 8
set r_aspectRatio 1
This is the way mine is set up at the moment... You can alter the multiSamples (AA), and you can alter the anisotropy (AF), if you choose to. The AA right now is set to 8X with these settings, but you can use 0,2,4,8,16? Same goes for AF with the 0,2,4,8,16 I think? I just have it set to 0 for now, but by all means try out 16 if you like. I think it looks pretty good like this anyhow.
Also keep in mind if you want to set up a different resolution, you can sub your own resolution numbers in place of the customHeight/Width, but keep in mind the aspectRatio 1 may need to be changed to a 2 to fit your screen:
aspectRatio 1= 16:9
aspectRatio 2= 16:10 (I think?)
Once you've finished tweaking the Autoexec.cfg file, click save of course, and launch Doom3 to check it out. Hopefully everything is working as it should except in my case it still lists the resolution as the lowest possible setting in the game, but I think it's just because there is no preset for 1920 X 1080 listed in the game menu. So don't be alarmed to see that. Just load up the game and it'll be looking good.
I hope this helps all of those who had the same problems I did. It works for me. Give it a try and good luck.

iD Software has released the latest patch for DOOM 3 - v1.1.
List of Changes:
Doom3(TM) 1.1 Update README
Last updated 9-15-2004
Please note that in-game console commands are also not supported by Activision.
This update for Doom 3 addresses issues found in multiplayer and single player since release. A complete list of what we've fixed and added is below. For future releases and more information about the game, please visit our web site: http://www.doom3.com
For additional technical help with Doom 3, please see the Help system that came with the game, or visit our web site: http://www.doom3.com
NOTES FOR MOD USERS:
- It is recommended that any user modifications that have been installed to the Doom3 directory be removed before installing this update. These modifications are not supported by Activision and may not be compatible with some of the new features that are included.
NOTE FOR SINGLE PLAYER SAVED GAMEs:
- Using this update will reset your progress in whatever map you are currently saved in. When loading a saved game, the player starts at the begining of that map with their inventory intact.
- Using this update will reset the Nightmare skill setting. If you are playing in Nightmare mode before applying the 1.1 update, you will need to re-enable it in the console (g_nightmare 1)
NOTE FOR WIN32 DEDICATED SERVER EXECUTABLE
- Also included in this update is a Win32 dedicated server executable. This allows servers to be run under Win32 without a CD Check. You can launch this with command line options or configure it through the console once launched. Just launch 'Doom3Ded.exe'.
