No, KotOR for computer is so much better in many respects, mods, KSE, updates ect.
You should easily be able to fix these simple crashes
Browse this site, especially under the download section and you should find something which suits your problem, download it and put it in your files, just follow the steps. If that doesnt work download the KotOR2 update.
When it crashes does it come up with a Microsoft error window?
