Hello,
I purchased KOTOR 2 a couple of days ago. I installed the game and clicked 'Game' from the launcher. It plays the 'LucasArts' and 'Obsidian' logo movies and shows the title picture (of Nihilus, Sion and Vias) but the screen then goes black (although there is background music). A window pops up saying it has 'encounted a problem and must close'. I am then returned to the desktop. I have tried running with the movies and sound disabled with the same results.
I have the latest updates for my video, sound and motherboard drivers and the latest DirectX. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the game and rebooting. I have also installed both of the officals patches. I have disabled power management and I close my other applications such as anti-virus etc. when I try to run the game.
I can't think what else it could be.
