I am trying to run Star Wars Knights of the old Republic via steam on my Windows 7 computer, but it does not work. Someone had the same problem and found a solution?
When I run the game, it loads for the first logo of lucas arts, but then does not load all still and go back to windows. The games seems to still be running in the toolbar, but it's just a black screen? Any ideas? I it is game to work once before, but I don't remember any fix specific on how I did it. See you soon
Hey, subtitled.
This seems to be a compatibility issue.
Try changing the compatibility settings.
You can choose to run the program compatibility problems for the same purpose.
To run the troubleshooting program compatibility Troubleshooter
1. open the resolution of the problems of compatibility of programs by clicking the Start button picture of the Start button, click Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting. Under programs, click on run programs for previous versions of Windows.

I clean installed 2 x times the RC of windows 7 pro x 64. Both times I got this error in media center. I manually downloaded the playready 1.3 program. I can record my channels satalite with no problems so I don't understand why he repeats the above message. However, I am worried that when the DRM updates for the satalite it won't work and I won't be able to update. I have not changed anything in the hardware level in the computer as so he wouldn't because he thinks it's another computer. Any help would be appreciated.
Clarification on this: summer working on this issue for more than 2 months on 4 computers, that's what I found.
Note: Not all the patches will work on a pc due to various stages of updates, patches, etc. No matter what anyone says or claims. What works for me, the other person or even technical support, may not be due to a strange configuration on your pc. Nevertheless, that's what I did on the final 3 computers that have no auto update of the readyplay.
(1) get to the point in media center it says Readyplay failed to update, you want to try again.
(OPTIONAL) Download the tool from Microsoft DRM Reset, change in Compatibility Mode for Windows 7 (or any version of Windows), run the tool as admin. He must install and say successful.
(2) open Windows "Services" via the control panel > administrative tools > Services.
(3) with Media Center open and show "the PlayReady update was incomplete. Do you want to retry? "Goto Control Panel"Services"you just opened and scroll all the way" Services Windows Media Center Receiver ", double-click it, and then click on"Stop ".
4) navigate to the folder ReadyPlay HIDDEN (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\PlayReady), and THEN Delete the mspr.hds file.
(5) return to the OPEN & CONTINUES, Media Center and click 'Yes' and 'Next' to the question of the PlayReady update. He should immediately zip past and say update complete & you can watch and record copy-protected blah blah blah. It can also update a guide or something too.
If this doesn't work for you after that 5-6 tests, you have something to another block you, but you don't have need for both 32 bit and 64 bit PlayReady installed to update. This is the 'Service' which is really prevents the update, but simply stop w/o those other steps do not work >.
Good luck!

However, when you successfully install it in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 2), I run the application too in the same compatibility mode. But it gives me the following message is displayed:

I would be grateful if you could shed some light on this error.
I talked to your answers on the similar problem. However, in my case I don't reach even the main menu of the game.
Please note that I do not install this game on my laptop with Windows Vista Ultimate.
Thank you very much in anticipation
syb1987
Hello syb1987,
As Meghmala mentioned, the game is listed as being fully compatible, however:
(1) you can try to run the game in different compatibility modes to determine is that they work.
(2) have you installed XP Mode? Try maybe to install XP Mode and install the game in the virtual environment.
(3) you can find others on the forums for this game in particular who were lucky in getting the game to properly install and run better.
Hope this heps

I recently downloaded a copy of Star Wars Knights of the old Republic 2 and have had any other questions. The first issues was a message that kept telling me that I had the wrong disc inserted any disc I've used. I have not downloaded any crack disk and got that the fixed part. Now, the game keeps the work stoppage and must be closed. Sometimes she does on the logos, the main menu or I even made with regard to creating a character then right after that the words are made to scroll it crashes.

Not enough information.
Of course - you send messages to a Microsoft support forum and one could assume that you mean that you try to download Microsoft Security Essentials, save it to your computer and install it then - but even with this hypothesis - another that knowing you have Windows XP (probably Home edition, but possibly professional or Media Center editions - and probably more than 32-bit not 64 - bit)-we do not like you think we should knowledge.
Regarding AntiVirus - free are very good: Avira, AVG, Avast
You could spend ~ 60USD during two years of eSET NOD32 AntiVirus (not more - just AntiVirus.)
Get one - save on your computer (do not install immediately.)
Reset...
After a reboot - install your new product and update after the installation.
Run a full scan with it.
Then - just to make sure you started on the right foot...
Search for malware:
Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:
Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)
Search online with eSet Online Scanner. Remove everything it finds.
Reset.
