I have a problem with kotor freezing up when I get to a certain point in the game. Its when your buddy starts fighting and tells you to escape near the beggining. I am running from a hardrive , copied to hd from original disk. I also had this problem with sof2.It seems like it does it at a movie sequence.
Any help would be appreciated.

you could try deleting it and recopying it

I was having a problem with is freezing whenever I tried to enter a new area, save, or load it would either show a black screen or this freeze. what worked for me was setting of xbox time on the retail dashboard. when I checked it was showed some weird date like 12/22/6065 or something like that. anyway try checking and making sure the date and time are ok
