Technical problem: kotor

[sn0wb04rd3r]

Hi there Every1!
I finally got the KotOR. I was very happy when I installed the game and I run the launching .exe file. But right in the next minute I became very dissapointed! I clicked on the launch file, and appeared the game menu (play game, configure, update, exit) and when I clicked on the play game button, apppeared a picture with a ship and my cursor arrow changed to a rotating disc cursor. After the picture dissapeared and the cursor changed back as well to my old cursor and nothing happened! Then I started again the game and on the logon screen I clicked on the configure button. Then I clicked on recommend settings, and on the scan hardware button and in both cases the following error message poped up:

nVidia OpenGL driver (window header)

Driver component sizes mis-match. Retry to keep going. Cancel to exit.

Here are some infors about my system:
Processor: Intel Pentium III, 1Ghz
Memory: 512 Md RAM
Page file: 167 Mb used, 1083Mb available
DirectX: DirectX 9.0b
Video card: NVIDIA Geforce4 MX 440 with AGP8X
Windows XP
I tested DirectDraw and Direct3D and all the tests were succesfull.

What is wrong??? How could I finally run and play the game??? Please try to help me if you can!

Thanx in advance!

Have you used the update tool to update the game?

google detonator destroyer or nvidia file remover.
Uninstall your vid card drivers, reboot.
Run whichever utility you downloaded and delete any files found.
Reinstall your vid card drivers.

Well, first of all, make sure you've updated the game with the Update button. Then try re-inserting your game CD into the drive and try another drive if you have it. The cursor showing up then dissapearing may be the copy protection failing to recognize the disc.

I think it is the copy protection too. I had a very similar problem when I reinstalled Jedi Knight Academy about a month ago. It took about two or three reinstalls and then it worked fine. I also had better results installing it with my CDRW drive instead of my DVDROM. Hope you get it working.
