Hi I'm not really up with laptops with Nvidia cards, but have you tried the Omega drivers here. You may also want to look at these posts, I know they relate to ATI cards, but they may give you some ideas on how to get things going on a laptop. Sorry I can't be more help.

Hi Mars & Maytime I'm thinking here ... I have a couple of things I need to look into tonight on my laptop, but Maytime's post got me thinking a bit more - can you post you kotor.ini file? Also, both of you, which Catalyst are you using - 1. the Catalyst supplied via driver updates from your laptop manufacturer's web site e.g in Mars case from here at HP.com; or 2. the Catalyst for Notebooks (Hydravision) from here at the ATI notebook support page; or 3. the general release Catalyst from here at ATI. And finally - have you both patched the game? Maytime I know you are running K2 and it looks like you have from your .ini file but let me know anyway. I'm thinking I may have a solution - don't hold your breath, but I may ...

Hey Mars Hope yo got the dll files I see they have deleted it form pcgamemods, wasn't sure if they would like it - not sure why though ... Anyway if you didn't let me know and I will see if I can host it somewhere else. Trin

Mars Man what a laptop, cycling and computers - two of my favourite things! A Lance Armstrong comp is kinda cool (didn't even know they made them), it

Come on peaple the chant has been lost here, keep it going .... ........ GIVE US/IT A BUG FIX!!!!

Hey Packersfan That

Welcome Packersfan We (and infact I mean all the tech savvy members, because I will probebly only be able to give limited help) are going to need system info - at least CPU, RAM, Vidio Card and whether a laptop or desktop machine. Your kotor2.ini file would be useful aswell. The more info the better (usually a good idea to put such info in your first post) Also, run a search on "black screen" as I recall reading about this somewhere else - See how you get on, Trin

Hey Mars I recalled that when I got K2 I tried to find how to download OpenGL 1.4, but got no info. I just went to OpenGL.org and to this page and it seems you have to get the latest OpenGL software from the graphics card manufacturer. On ATI.com I got this result from my search for

Kaijin (aka NOOB) I have also posted more info on running the game on a laptop here - it may help - good luck Do not succumb to the Xbox side - stay PC Trin Jaguar - mmmmmmmm boobies aaaaaagggghhh Xbox

Everybody now ... Say it with me ... "Thanks for the movie/music fix Meeester Luuucas ... BUT GIVE US A BUG FIX!!!!!!! ..............GIVE US A BUG FIX!!!!!!! ...........................GIVE US A BUG FIX!!!!!!! ........................................... A BUG FIX!!!!!!! ....dammit!

Hi Mars No problem in the reply/help Answering your question on which Catalyst I have used and I am using

Hey Mars! Answering your questions (as I understand)

Hi Mars You read my input on the ATI/shared memory/laptop issue. It seems to me that laptops are a bit funny on games. Looking at your specs you should be ok memory wise you have double the Ram/Vid I have so it may run better. Before I loaded the ATI mod both games would not work on my laptop, where as my work laptop (useless spec wise - 1.33Hz processor, 128mb ram, 8mb Intel Extreme vid) would load and run K1 and K2 at about 2 FPS. Go figure (your guess is as good as mine). I had to load Patje’s ATI mod to get ATI Catalyst to run on my Laptop the ATI 345m card does not support it. As an aside I think I am not doing the best thing by my Graphic Card, and I will probably fry it – but I want to play the games! However before you do what I did with the ATI mod I would actually try to load the latest ATI Catalyst software/drivers without it. It appears that you have a card that ATI Catalyst will work on without the ATI mod. If you can’t load ATI Catalyst directly – you will know because an error message will come up – then use the ATI mod. If you have to use the mod it is best to use DriverCleaner first then load the mod then ATI Catalyst. If you have K1 running, you should be able to run K2. My understanding is that the only significant difference is the OpenGL (which is 1.4). How significant that is I don’t know, but it does not seem to affect my laptop. Make sure you go into the kotor2.ini file (it will be in the folder you loaded K2 into/as) and under [Graphics Options] make sure the following is set as "Disable vertex buffer objects=1" (I think the default is 0). Just a warning, I am no expert, my advice is make sure you read the “readme.txt” files included with DriverCleaner and Patje’s ATI Mod – follow the instructions exactly. Also – backup before you make any changes and take your time. Ultimately it appears to be a bit of a lottery with laptops and there is no way of testing until you buy the game. Good luck and let me know how you get on. Trin P.S. despite the apparent "unfinishedness" of the game it is still a great game! and - welcome to the forums and - dufflover will likely ask you to play Pazaak!

NOOB I have a laptop with a 345m card - see what I did here. FYI I'm still running 5.4 but I haven't updated the movie/sound content. Good luck!

I would offer my services to the Restoration team, if they need someone to get their drinks, snickers bars etc, oh you actually mean someone to help with the restoration … well, that uh, is way out of my league I rely on other peoples genius there … "
