TSL Korriban black screen - please help


Agistrar

Recommended Posts

Okay, I've been beating my head against this problem for days now. Time to get outside help.

 

Here's the issue: When leaving the Ebon Hawk for Korriban's surface, I get the party selection screen, then once I hit OK I just get a black screen with the pointer on it. I can move the pointer, but no matter how long I sit there the loading screen doesn't come up. I can Alt+F4 to quit out of it, but no other keys do anything.

 

Now, my game's situation: No mods, no cheats. None. I've had the standard problems with the Telos Academy, but figured it out, had the Dantooine lag but solved that, too. I've had no loading problems on any other transitions, and this one just started recently. Here's what I think is the problem: From Telos I went to Nar Shadda, finished it, then went to Duxn, got through up to before the war, when you can't do anything else there for a while, and went to Korriban. I saw the entry movie, and actually got out to the surface and saved my game. After glancing at a couple FAQs I decided to do Dantooine before Korriban instead and left. Went to Dantooine, finished it, went back to Duxn/Onderon and finished it, then tried to go to Korriban to finish it up. And that's the first time I got this problem. This game being so buggy, I'm guessing my save was corrupted by my arrival and departure from Korriban the first time.

 

What I've done: I've updated my drivers to the newest ones, I've tried several different resolutions/graphic options, I've tried all my save files (I don't have one left over from before I went to Korriban the first time, though), I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times and tried with both the 1.0b patch on and off. I even tried a corrupted save game workaround I found on the Lucasarts site for KOTOR 1 that had me uninstall the game, install it somewhere else, move the save files over, load one, go to a different zone, save in a new slot, delete the old saves, and load from the new one. All to no avail.

 

So, the big question is can anyone help me? Abbreviated comp specs follow (I figure nobody needs to see my key bindings and such).
