Doomsday Engine 1.9.7 (jdoom 1.16.0) Inoperably Slow Win7

Today I just downloaded a video card driver I meant to use for a while now, and I'm running into this issue. Before I got this driver, the DE wouldn't even launch (just an icon on the taskbar). My computer should be able to handle this application just fine, so that shouldn't be an issue. Does anyone know of any bugs or anything such as this that can cause this from happening? It is so slow that it is on the brink of being completely frozen. :-/

    What are the specs of your computer? CPU and video card model/vendor?

    Could you start the game with the -v option (in the launcher: Developer -> Verbose messages) and post your Doomsday.out here?

    I've seen many such posts on other forums only for it to turn out that the video card was woefully inadequate. As DaniJ suggests, posting your doomsday.out file will help diagnosis.

    It might also be a specific visual feature that ones video card can't handle, rather than the card being too old in general.
