Graphics arent working on Windows XP

[Akatzki]

When i try to play SW:KOTOR2 on my Windows XP the graphics dont work. The only objects that actually show correctly are the lightsabers, everything else is either black or a twisting array of lights... I have ran a system check, and a game check. They all came out perfectly fine. I checked my drivers and they were the newest for my system. I have an ATI Radeon 96000 graphics card and Directx 9.0. The game checked my system for its requirements and my results were that i was perfectly able to play the game without any trouble. My system passed all tests. I have tried many different graphics settings - all to no avail. The game its self works perfectly fine. No lag or hitches... except for the graphics its fine. Just unsure what the problem is or if its fixable.

 

Edit - I have done the Computer > Run > Dxdiag and my system passed all tests...

It can be a bad install with missing textures. I have no other idea.

Newest drivers aren't always best for older games.

Okay, if it isnt always best why does the troubleshooting guide say to make sure to have updated drivers... ...

 

So your saying i should downgrade my drivers?

Keep in mind though that the game was released in 2005. 'Updated' is relative.
