Broken Graphics (spikes, blackness, fog, etc)

[Romanus]

Hey all!

 

I bought KOTOR 2 last summer to play. Well, it wouldn't work on my Vista laptop (and I've tried all the solutions here) and so I am switching to my XP desktop, which ran KOTOR 1 perfectly fine.

 

Here are the problems - When I create a character no character models are shown, just the six boxes and six gray fogs. When I start the game and the levels load... they are masses of colored spikes and vast black areas. But I do have a user interface with everything, and I can see and click on doors, and I can move around. But everything is black or these massive spikes.

Thanks for your help! I have been trying to get this to work for FOREVER and I have exhausted every search and option I can think of. Below is my system info.
