When loading KOTOR One, I get the pictures for the production companies, then my screen goes black. I have to used the Task Manager to get the game to finally show the Game Screen (New Game, Load, Movies Quit etc).
From there, if I create a new character, I am sent back to a black screen. If I keep hitting the "send to" button on the Task Manager, I finally get the game. I think repeating "send to" in the Task Manager Application is allowing the game to play through a Video. Once past the Video, the game loads and works fine.
I can also use the Task Manager to open up the game screen which then let's me load a game. And it works fine--- until the next video cut screen. Black screen and back to the Task Manager.
How the Task Manager allows for me to get to the Game Screen is that I load the Task Manager then hit cancel. I get a blurry screen, then the Game Screen. It is as if loading Task Manager allows the graphics to begin to co-operate. How is way above my pay grade.
As I said, once in the game, it works fine. But I like the cut screen videos. And having to hit Task Manager so many times is annoying. Any one have this problem and have a way to get into the game in a more normal fashion?
Thanks.
PS (edit) I tried 5K and Windows mode for Video. Nothing changed. I went into the graphic card and tried various display sizes and types. Nothing changed. Loaded Flawless Widescreen. Nothing changed.
PPS
I can sometimes, not always get the movies to work from the Game Screen. And the only way to quit the game is through Task Manager. The game won't shut down otherwise.
