Can't install KOTOR2


Recommended Posts

Hardware... Check your drive and see if it works with other games.

 

If it does, log out and log in with Administrator privelleges. Then check to ensure that no programs are running in the background (e.g. antivirus bla bla bla). Hope it works...

lol, if Half-Life 2 works, then I think I'll be fine hardware-wise

 

I turned off my anti-virus, and Its installing, but its stuck on the per_05 movie. Its been on it for a long time now...

 

Your CD Drive you dolt :blink:... Anyways I gather from ur post, the drive is not the problem.

Disable all background services. Obsidian didn't account for all these problems so there are a LOT of clashes/conflicts between KotOR 2 and your other programs.

OK, I solved the problem for myself:

 

(The paths are in german. They may vary in english OS)

 

Go to Programme / Gemeinsame Dateien / InstallShield

 

and remove (or better backup before) this folder.

 

Reinstall.... this worked fine for me.

 

Is it the fault of obsidian?

 

No and yes. Primary it is the fault of InstallShield, but obsidian should not use this install-tool if it doesn't work correctly.

 

Anyway I can play now.

I have the same problem, too.

 

The solution is, that you have to enter the first disk everytime this error appears. When you enter the first disk, it will tell you that the wrong disk is in your cd drive and that you should enter the disc number x (x=3-4)

 

at the end you have to enter cd1 again.

 

The game will run without any problem
