Running Games with 3D Desktop

On both my brother's machine and my own, I cannot get Doom 3 to run while using a 3D desktop. I must turn of 3D and then the game will launch. It complains about lacking virtual memory when attempting to launch. Any solutions?

 

We both use Nvidia video cards with Nvidia drivers. (GeForce 7300 GS) I have 2G of RAM, 667 MHz.
