Decameron Noir

Maybe someone around here can help me too. I want to play this game so much! I have a laptop too, a mere celeron one would say but I run a lot of games on it with no problems at all. KOTOR 1 worked just fine, though I had to disable the movies. KOTOR 2, on the other hand crashes instantly after charcter creation . Now, I know this is an ATI thread, but my HP laptop uses the Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME chipset. A lot of people say it's crap, but that's the computer for good or for worse. I was told before that it couldn't even run the previous game, but after updating drivers and disabling movies everything was fine... Can someone help me ? please? Thanks ahead , Decameron.

Hi everyone. I'm sure this quiestion was asked before, but I really need some help .. I loved the original game, and rate it as one of my all time favorite games, but as I have a rather weak machine, I took KOTOR 2 from a friend to check if it will work. The game was installed ok, character creastion went fine, but as I start to play the game crashes right away, I don't even get to watch the first screen. Usually I'd think may machine can't handle it, but the truth is that the first game needed some tweaking before it could work too.. I disabled movies, updated my opengl and drivers, disabled grass and shadow and KOTOR 1 works just fine. The machine I use is an HP laptop pavilion with a celeron processor inside (weak, I know) but the funny thing is that both games said it won't run the game but KOTOR 1 works amazingly... I'm sure this problem can be overcome some how, I've heard something about running it in windowed mode but have no clue as to how to pull it off.. can some please help ? Thanks ahead, Decameron.
