Knights of the Old Republic 2

I've quite disappointed. I've played through most of Knights of the Old Republic on my netbook (Samsung NC10), I think I might have posted regarding Malic at the end being too hard to kill with some of the bad choices I made through the game (alignment, gear, specs) so decided to give it up and throw on number 2 to work through.

But I dunno if it's the "NO CD" crack I downloaded (The netbook doesn't have a CD Drive, so it won't let me play my Legal Bought copy, I'm not trying to circumvent the law) or if it's just the fact the netbook can't play the game. But it loads fine, but when I try and load a game it throws up a critical error and breaks.

As such, I have lacking a playable version on my netbook, and am half tempted to play on my Laptop (I don't have a desktop), that is, the proper laptop I'm using at the moment, with a 17" display and more importantly a CD Drive. Although I need to replace this laptop with a desktop since this thing is just over 3 years old (so doesn't even have a dual core!) and I'm not forking out another £1600 for another laptop with a life of 3 years, especially considering the number of times this one has broke (fair enough, twice, both under warrenty).

If I want to play Kotor2 I'll either have to see if I can sort it on the netbook (which I prefer to play it on since I can take that anywhere, like playing on the train or at lunch) or just play it on the Laptop. The main trouble I have is that when i'm on the laptop why don't I play TF2 or L4D (or even WoW) instead? I'm mostly playing the Kotor series to remind me of the entire thing while i'm still psyched up about the new MMO Bioware are making for the series.
