Need help KotOR 1 Widescreen

Hi, a year back, I bought the KotOR collection edition (2CDs), because the old version was to complex to make it work with my Win7 pro. So the only small bug I had back then, was some loading and window on/off the game, when movies were playing. I've disabled the movies and it was a charm.

 

Now two weeks ago, my good old trusty 21" Viewsonic CRT let me down and now I'm stuck with a LG wide screen LCD. So I had to work around the inconvenience of having that king of monitor.

 

So I've tried the WSGF trick and it work, but my GPU start heating up from 48°C to 68°C and I didn't like this. Also with WSGF, I had some crash (shortcut corrupted) and some HUD problems on the lower portion of the screen like this:

Edit: I've played some more with Uniws patcher:

But I still need some help, like I said I've got a [16/10]- resolution to obtain, since for unknown my monitor doesn't like to get under 1680x1050, it get's very blurry under this resolution.

 

So after that, I've tried Flawless Widescreen, both x86 and x64. For a moment it was great, no GPU temperature burst (52°C) and the HUD was looking good so far, until the game starting getting slower and slower, than it freezes and I had to kill SWKotOR to get out with both versions. Tried to get back in game and I was in window mod with frame and portion of screen hidden by task bar. Also I had the same slow and freeze problem.

 

I've did everything they ask for WSGF (except the hexing) and FW and I can't make it good. One thing for sure is, I hate my LCD it has a lot of trouble with resolution under 1680x1050.

 

Here what I've got on my good old PC
