  1. I, too, am having the same problem running KOTOR II on a laptop with the ATI Radeon Xpress 200M...same as PacMan, I get erratic movement key responses that make the game unplayable. I keep seeing those saying, "well, you cannot run it on a laptop because the laptop has onboard graphics that share resources..." But! As the laptop users keep trying to point out: these laptops run many other 3D and high end games with no problems! (Battle for Middle Earth; Neverwinter Nights Platinum, Medal of Honor Pac. Assault, and many other games run great on this laptop). Also, as others have pointed out this ATI 200M has 128MB dedicated Ram...yes, it has it's own ram and doesn't steal it from the motherboard! I'm sorry...but with a large percentage of the problems being posted by ATI users, and then it seems the ones that have no work around are the Laptop users with the ATI graphics. Clearly there is some type of problem with this game...and it doesn't happen with other games. I am careful to check the box for hardware requirements, and all the specs on this box were LOWER than my laptop's capabilities. At minimum, Lucas Arts, Obsidian, or someone should allow a refund for the folks that bought this with the expectation that it would run according to box specs (mainly the laptop users). Does anyone have an idea of who to contact for any serious consideration of this issue? I tried Lucas Arts Tech Support, and they just blew me off as an ignorant Laptop user that didn't understand how Laptops are so inferior. TelcoKen
  2. I also have the ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200M (128mb), and cannot run KOTOR II on this new laptop (3.2GHz AMD Athlon 64; 512mb ram; 80 gig hard disk). The game installs normally, starts normally, but then the movement keys are erratic and unusable (even if remapped). I am looking for some type of fix or work-around. I emailed Lucas Arts Tech Support, but they just gave me a long list of how laptops are inferior for running games. But, this laptop is more of a desktop replacement, and runs many high end games very well. It exceeds all the box listed requirements, except the box says one of the supported video cards is the ATI 300m (and doesn't list the 200m). I asked Lucas Tech Support how I can get a refund, but (surprise); no reply. Isn't there something that can be done? Obviously I cannot upgrade my video chip, and I understand that over time the newer games will not run on the laptop, but this laptop is very capable; new; and a desktop-replacement. And with all the complaints I am seeing about KOTOR II from ATI card users, clearly there is a problem. In this case, shouldn't I be able to get a refund? TelcoKen
