Well, I managed to get it to work. Went into the configuration, turned sound back on, game crashed, turn sound back off, game crashed, turned it back on, game crashed and finally I turned it off once more and it worked! Managed to get a few good hours of gameplay in, was quite fun. However, I just did the quick character creation to save myself a couple of minutes and it worked... so now I have a black guy with silly first off stats =( On another note, the flickering of the game was still there when it played. Screen constantly flickering black and white. Was very annoying to start with but I got used to it. Only happens in game play, when you go into the menus for items, saving games etc the screen is completely normal. Looks like I'll have to go google some stuff :<

G'day, I signed up to these forums just to post this I purchased KOTOR II the a few days ago and proceeded to install it, only to be denied the ability to play by all the "This program has stopped working" messages, which is quite annoying. I have read numerous forums on the internet on how to fix this and the most notable fix people recommended was the new mss32.dll file, which I tried, and failed. I eventually came across these forums with your original post and I followed all the steps as they were written with no alterations... Without success. The SecuROM email only returned to me with; "Hello, Thank you for your e-mail. After careful inspection of the analysis file and due to your error description, it appears that the issue is not SecuROM related." So they were no help. Just a few things I would like to point out: My computer is fairly new and can run Crysis on high without dramas. The first time I played KOTOR II it loaded and ran through the first movies and into the game but for some reason the image flickered. Just imagine every 2nd frame being black and you'll understand what I'm talking about. That was the only time that the game managed to work (had to turn off sound to get that far). When I next tried to play the game, I had to start a new game as the previous game's auto save wouldn't load, the loading screen would come up and load to about 75% and freeze and a loading picture also came up. Now when it loads, no picture comes up and it gets to about the some point as before but instead of freezing, it just comes up with the "this program has stopped working" error. I have tried everything people have suggested (re-installing with instructions in the OP, mss32.dll replacement, run in compatability mode, run as administrator ect) and none of it has worked so far. My system is as follows: CPU: Intel E8400 GPU: Asus HD3870x2 RAM: Patriot 4GB DDRII Mobo: Gigabyte EX38-DS5 OS: Vista 64-bit Needless to say, my system will be able to run the game without any hardware strains, if it were to work... Any ideas?
