JT47319 Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 My specs... P4 1.6GHz 512MB RAM Raydeon 9800 Pro Catalyst 5.02 (with 4.11 openGL file in the KOTOR director) DirectX 9.3c Windows XP Soundblaster Audigy Nature of the problem... I get CTDed after returning to DXUN from Onderon when everyone starts to attack you and trying to return to the Ebon Hawk. I can't go with the guide and I can't walk there either. Both are CTDed. Tried to disable sound, various ini file fixes, uninstall, reinstall, low res, high res, etc. No joy. I cannot progress in the game unless I get back to the Ebon Hawk.
Trom Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 I say this with trepidation and I know this advice is standard, but when I was running into this problem, I defragged my disk. Actually, I started to defrag my disk after almost every save. Now I don't know if this was just superstitious behavior, but the problem rarely repeated itself. It might had nothing to do with the defrag, but maybe going in and out of the game. For better or worse, those cut scenes create a lot of snap, crackly pop on my monitor as it busts into and out of video mode. I don't think it was wise to pile so many on top of each other. Anyway, maybe this will help.
JT47319 Posted February 23, 2005 Author Posted February 23, 2005 Some further attempts, but with no luck. Catalyst 4.11 - Nope Catalyst 4.12 - Nope Reinstall DirectX 9.3c - Nope Latest Bink player - Nope It almost looks like the game is trying to play a movie, but fails. After talking to the guide or walking to the Ebon Hawk, it cuts to a black screen (no load screen art or bar) and I can still move my cursor before it crashes.
Aryanne Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 try the 5.1 driver(the 29.8 mb package). Worked for me i never even got the 5.2 5.1 ran it fine after several ctds from 4.11 exactly where your at.
JT47319 Posted February 23, 2005 Author Posted February 23, 2005 Catalyst 5.1 (29.1mb couldn't find the 29.8mb) - Nope (but thanks for the tip!)
Kiwegapa Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 I highly suggest you download the smaller seperate packages. I've had MUCH better luck with driver stability installing them. Grab the driver and the CCC or the Control Panel if you prefer. Smaller download, better install.
JT47319 Posted February 24, 2005 Author Posted February 24, 2005 Thanks for the tip, but even with the 5.1 driver only, it still crashes. Thx!
