It works! 1/3 loading crash caused by wnaspi32.dll

[spigeon]

The below "fix" has worked for quite a few people at the LucastArts board.

This is not intermittent - it is 100% repeatable.

 

I figured out Super DVD Creator 5 was causing the 1/3 progress bar crash on my system. I dug a little deeper and figured out that this program installs a few dlls in windows\system32, among them wnaspi32.dll.

 

When this file is in windows\system32, KotOR2 crashes. Otherwise, KotOR2 runs fine.

 

wnaspi32.dll v1.0.0.0 21504 bytes, 2003-04-08 19:39

I did it and it works. But I still have the same graphic problems like in Kotor 1: I have no Frame Buffer Effects.

does that include CTD ing after the first cutscene?

It works on my computer too.

 

Thx you just saved my weekend )

I have that file too version 4.71.2.0, do you really think its due to the aspi driver?

Well, the moderators at LucasArts have sticky-posted this fix as a unofficial workaround to the 1/3 loading crash.

It got the game working for many people.

So what if you don't have this dll or DVD Creator? Is this the best LA can come up with?

well, i don't have that file and still the 1/3 loading bug exists. i can tell that is in the part where the forced refresh rate is imposed at the screen because the screen blinks right before it crashes. (without refresh rate override by nvidia)
