Deceive Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 So this is kinda funny. I just got TSL, and I finished kotor last night, I went to install, everything fully installs, as soon as I run game...crash...ok...restart...boots up, start TSL, crash...ok...shut down...boots up, start TSL, crashes...ok i'm feeling the dark side in me now. *slaps computer*. I then procede to do some research on how to fix it, start defragging, 3 hours later...still defragging...I get bored and play JK2, log out, computer freezes...once again feeling the dark side...*slap computer*, screen goes black, restarts, takes 5 minutes to boot, "Operating System not found." Might as well called me Darth mother ****ing Vader at this point. So tomarrow I get to take my Laptop to a repair shop! yay Oh, note, dont buy Sony or Vaio products.
Darth Microsoft Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 Yay, my first post on these forums. Well, on the note of you taking your laptop to a repair shop.. KOTOR and KOTOR 2 don't run on laptops. Vaio or Dell or HP or whatever, it's most likely it won't run on laptops. I don't want to get into the technical detailing of it all, but that's how it is. If I were you, I'd just go for a desktop computer with a recent graphics card and all. Have fun.
Master Shake Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 the problem about your computer crashing when you start TSL is fixed by downloading the official fix http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com/file/TSL_Patch_US_Version;41126 I know because I had the same problem
Deceive Posted October 27, 2007 Author Posted October 27, 2007 thx for the replies, oh and I'm on a three week guard detail, and couldn't bring my PC with me, but my PC back at my barracks is easily capable of running ANY game released in the next coming years.
Sabretooth Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Welcomes to the forums, Deceive - nice username there! We've been having a string of nice new usernames these days - wonder what's going on? Is this uberPC at your barracks capable of running Crysis and BioShock at the same time?
Deceive Posted October 28, 2007 Author Posted October 28, 2007 I would imagine so, I plan to get Bioshock soon, Crysis aswell when it releases =] ...it hasnt released yet...has it? O_p
Char Ell Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 KOTOR and KOTOR 2 don't run on laptops. Vaio or Dell or HP or whatever, it's most likely it won't run on laptops. I don't want to get into the technical detailing of it all, but that's how it is. If I were you, I'd just go for a desktop computer with a recent graphics card and all. I played the original KotOR on a Dell Inspiron laptop with a GeForce 4 Go 440 graphics card and it worked fine for me. I think one of the key things to remember when buying a notebook PC for gaming is to get one that comes with either NVIDIA or ATI discrete graphics. One will generally have much more success playing games on notebook PC's with discrete graphics than the ones that use integrated graphics solutions. But I did decide to build a new desktop PC to play KotOR II.
Sabretooth Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 ...it hasnt released yet...has it? O_p The demo is out, if you were blind to the internet for the whole of yesterday. We even have a nice thread about it in the Swamp!
