I enjoy older games, and replaying older games (I;m a cheap bastard), but sometimes it takes an effort to make them run. Knights of the Old Republic 2 was one of those pain in the ass programs to make work in Window 10. Oh Microsoft, Microsoft, Microsoft.

I tried running the game as "administrator" which works very often. Sadly --- no. Changing compatibility --- no.  Eventually, I came across something that worked for me. People call it the dll fix, I renamed the atioglxx.dll in the game folder to atioglxx.bak.

Knights of the Old Republic 2 is running like a charm.
