Hiya, this is my first post here and I am having trouble of a sort with KOTOR 2. I recently got back from Iraq and upgraded my system to a new Dual core AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+, ASUS A8N-E nForce4 AMD Motherboard, and a XFX Geforce 7800GT 256MB video card. I installed KOTOR2, and start it up, and I already notice some problems when I get into the main menu. The guy in the main menu is stuttering at a breakneck pace. Same thing happens in character creation. When I start the main game and go into the Ebon Hawk. All of the character textures are replaced with darkness. There are also other graphics/ texture problems as well. And to top it all off, the character doesn't seem to want to move.
I tried the game on my friends computer and no problems. I also had problems with other games (Far- Cry looked fine but played fast, WAY TOO FAST). I updated the drivers and made sure all my games were patched, but nothing changed. I noticed when I did the system scan for KOTOR2 it said that my video card only met the requirements, didn't meet the recommend specifications. I sent my card back to new egg thinking it was defective. That didn't do much good, because I am having the same problems with the new card as I did before. Could it be due to driver issues since it is a new card, or maybe an issue with the dual core processors? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
