Kotor 2 on Vista 64 Laptop

[borninshadow]

Hello all. I have recently dug out my old copy of KotoR 2 and installed it on my Vista 64 laptop.

 

No matter what I do, I cannot get the game to start. When it runs the configuration, it says my nVidia drivers are non-existent. After that, when I run the game, it simply gives me an "Application had an error" message. Below is the details of the message. Has anyone else encountered this in particular? Must I go back to my desktop if I wish to play KotoR 2?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

Did you install the game using this guide, following the instructions in the first two posts?

Yup, tried all that. The only thing I haven't been able to try is swapping out my kotor2.exe file for the one securom has. I tried contacting them, but they haven't gotten back to me.

 

That was about a week ago =/
