Sierra

Now that is ironic...

What am I looking for? The mss32.ll fix I've tried already and didn't work. The Intel 965 graphics (and the computer itself) isn't designed for gaming at all. But it's just enough to run some games. If it can run all the other games, I thought Kotor2 would be easier on it.

I would've thought the other games would have higher graphics. When running the hardware check, the graphics card and processor speed were the only two in yellow as minimum acceptable, so I thought it would still be okay. But I think you're right about the graphics card. When I tried 1024x768 the stopped working message came up right after the making a character part and not even the Star Wars text crawl. 800 x 600 was the lowest setting it can go to, and that was what it was set to at default.

Kotor 2 is an awesome game and I love it. I love the darker storyline, more stuff and more flexible than the first Kotor. Like just about everyone else, I'm having trouble getting it to work on Vista. I can get into the game, create a player, but Windows says "Knights of the Old Republic 2 has stopped working" right after the first cutscene of the (Ebon Hawk drifting to Peragus). The details says it's an APPCRASH. And nothing's worked, not disabling sound/movies or anything. I've tried running Kotor 2 as Administrator and using Windows 2000 or Windows XP SP2 compatibility, but it still didn't work. And even replacing the mss32.dll doesn't work either. It's a great game, but ruined by Vista's incompatibility. I've even tried to run a dual-boot of XP but it wouldn't let me downgrade. And why doesn't Obsidian or Lucasarts just make a Vista patch? Computer: Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit Toshiba Satellite A205 S5810 notebook 1.6 Ghz Intel Dual-Core Processor 3 gb memory 120 gb hard drive Intel 965 Chipset graphics I know all drivers and Direct X are up to date. The graphics card is the factory built Intel 965. It's not NVIDIA but I've ran a lot of other games well with it. Games like the Star Wars Best of PC (Kotor 1, Republic Commando, Jedi Outcast 2), Halo, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas... And these games have much more demanding graphics than Kotor.
