March 14, 200520 yr If you could help with this, that would be awesome. I got the game (finally!) and installed it like it told me to. My brother got to the game before me and started a game, which seemed to work fine until you get to the point where you're just controlling the droid, when it got wierd and jumpy. So that was weird. So I decided to start my own game. I got my character all made up like I wanted him. So I hit 'Play'. The movie starts, the words scroll by like they do in every Star Wars movie. Then the screen swerves over to watch the Ebon Hawk, damaged, floating to Peragus. The camera catches the planet with the core showing and everything nice and neat, and the video fades out (I guess it's supposed to do that). Then, once it fades out, the game freezes. Once I realize it's not doing anything, I hit alt+F4, which doesn't do anything. Then I hit ctrl+alt+del, which brings up the task manager. It shows KotOR II as 'Not Responding', so I hit 'End Task', ending the game. Once I get out, the taskbar at the bottom of the Windows screen is gone, and it won't come back. So I tell the computer to restart, and repeat the process, and so the thing happens again. I then resolve to uninstall and reinstall it. So I uninstall it, removing my brother's game, and then reinstall it. It still messes up. I've tried being female, doing a quick character, setting everything to default, etc. It still doesn't work. And in the reinstallation, for some reason the uninstall protocall didn't download, so I can't uninstall it. If you could help, that'd be great. 512 MB RAM 2.8 GHz Pentium IV Processor 115 GB free on my hard drive RADEON X300 Series Windows XP Media Center Edition

March 21, 200520 yr Author Yeah. I did that, and it worked, but also... I e-mailed the tech support people, and they told me to go to the .ini file and under [Graphics] put Disable Vertex Buffer=1 . This stopped the crashing movies. But unfortunately, it may have had the side effect of randomly freezing my computer when it forces me to make a party change. I choose the people, hit ok, then hit it again, and the computer just completely freezes. But it has movies now, so I'm happier!
March 22, 200520 yr Driver issue, at least that I've found. I had Cat 4.10 drivers on my comp when I got KOTOR2 and ran into the exact same thing you did. When I upgraded to 5.3 they went away, but then you get another problem when you get to another planet later. Apparently Catalyst 4.11 is the best driver version to use for KOTOR2 when using a Radeon card.

The, go to your .ini file and under display options, set the refresh rate to 60, and if it doesn't work, try different ones, for example, 75 [Display Options] FullScreen=1 Disable Movies=0 Disable Intro Movies=0 Sort Modules=1 Width=640 Height=480 BitsPerPixels=32 RefreshRate=60
