[TSL][Vista][Laptop] Crash on main menu?


Lunar4

Recommended Posts

ok, I just installed TSL following every step in the "get tsl working on vista", or whatever its called topic, and I run the shortcut in Xp compatability, etc. But, when i get to the main menu, I go to the graphics option menu, click on "advanced options" ---- then kotor2 "stops working", and it crashes.

 

Ive also tried the directx 10 fix (download directx 9.0c run alongside directx10), still no help...

 

My specs:

 

GPU: ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 894mb

Processor: AMD Turion 64 x2 Mobile Technology TL-52 (2 CPUs), ~1.6Ghz

Memory: 1790MB RAM

 

any help?

 

EDIT: Ran swconfig.exe, heres what it says:

It says I failed minimum requirements because my OS is Windows 9x?? Is that code for vista or is my pc just crazy?

v6.0 denotes that it is vista, kernel 6.

 

I guess they still haven't released sp2? Are you up to date on all your OS hotfixes and what-not?

 

Is your version of Vista a full-version or upgrade? I seem to recall my tsl recognizing vista as vista for the 2 seconds i had it installed, but I may be wrong...

Check out the AMD dualcore fix thread as well--that might be part of the problem but I'm not sure.

 

Once you get past the AMD issue, try turning your screen resolution down while you play the game. I found on my laptop that it worked better when screen and game resolutions matched. I just changed the screen resolution back to normal after I finished that gaming session. Also, turn off all advanced graphics options, and add them back one by one to see if any of those might be an issue also.
