Problem with KOTOR2 on Vista.


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I just installed kotor2 on Windows Vista and it doesn't work. I put the CD in, then click "GAME" to start, but all I get is a message window from Vista that KOTOR2 stopped working and have been closed. I tried to re-instal it but still doesn't work. I think that I have issue with file "swkotor2.ini" because it seems incomplete. Could somebody send be a copy of that file please?

 

Thank you

black knight :)

ok so

 

i got the new swkotor file

but i must have put it in the wrong folder or something

because now when i try to play the game it says that

like it doesnt seem to be properly installed.>_<

 

And I reinstalled it but before i do anything with the

new file i was wondering if you could take some time

to post a step by step kinda thing so i dont place it in

another wrong place.

open up my computer.. go to program files... Lucas Arts>Kotor 2> look for "swkotor2.exe" move it out of the folder and put it somewhere safe, put in the new kotor. But you must make sure you also use the link in the topic I posted and download that new ms32.dll file and do the same with the ms32.dll file as you did with the kotor2.exe

I have that problem too, but I haven't fixed it, I can only relate the problem between you and me, maybe someone will give us some kind of tip that will help both of us.
