hugh750 Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 Does any one know if ether kotor 1 or 2 works on vista?
Sand Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 You will need to put the games in WIndows XP compatibility mod or you will have some graphical hiccups. Beyond that they work very well for me.

Beyond that they work very well for me. I tried it again but this time in WIndows XP compatibility mode here is the error i got both times. If anyone else has gotten this error in vista please let me know that i'm not the only one. Edited March 25, 2007 by hugh750
Darth Mortis Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Someone else was asking the samething, I think that some versions of Vista run the game better than others. The other thread is here. Hope it helps. PS; I think that if any of the mods are reading this it might be a good idea to have a sticky thread titled 'Running KOTOR on Vista' so we can put all the information we get on this in one place. Something tells me that this is not the last question we're going to get on this.

hugh750 Posted March 26, 2007 Author Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) I 3rd it! Also i reinstall windows xp and kotor 1 runs fine now. Edited March 26, 2007 by hugh750
hawk Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 Then I am glad that I don't upgrade to Vista. Everything works fine on XP so why should I upgrade? It has always been my philosophy. Master Vandar lives!
hugh750 Posted March 28, 2007 Author Posted March 28, 2007 Even though i've gone back to using xp, I do like vista it does have a lot of nice things in it but it also has some glitches in it as well.
hugh750 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Posted April 2, 2007 Anyone who has gotton it to work on vista (what version was it and what compatibilty mode setting did you use) i'm asking because i reinstalled vista (i've got home premium).
Darth Mortis Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Check the technical and help section on the KOTOR 2 section Here
Watchman Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 another thread on this forum that has steps that I am guessing work.
SteveThaiBinh Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 As suggested in the FAQ on the Kotor 2 forum, you're probably better off looking for help in the LucasArts Tech Support forum as well as here - there seem to be more solutions getting posted there. Good luck, and if you do find something that works, please let me know, and I'll add a note linking the error message and the solution in the FAQ. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."
