Hello. First off, I am attempting to run Kotor 2 on a brand new Toshiba Satellite with AMD processor and Windows 8. The game itself works fine, as I installed it a week ago on another laptop with no issues (except the usual issues with Kotor 2). When I try to install Kotor 2 on the new laptop, however, I don't even get through the first disc without an error popping up with a message saying:
Feature: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords_Files
Component: DefaultComponent
File: D:\data2.cab
Error: Incorrect Function
Now I know a similar error which reads as cyclic redundancy check means that the disc is corrupted, but as I said, this worked a week ago on a separate computer. Can someone figure out exactly what is going on with this error? Is it an issue of disc integrity or is this a common problem with Windows 8? Also, are there any special considerations that must be taken to install Kotor 2 (or K1 for that matter) on Windows 8 machines? Thank you.
