Default KOTOR II messes up screen resolution? Color?

So i installed KOTOR II a few weeks ago and notice that every time I load the game my screen flashes a lighter color before the game runs/loads. I don't think much of it, but whenever i exit the game i notice my screen resolution looks different. The contrast and colors seem to be a bit more dim and it doesn't seem to revert back to normal. (Or it takes a long time I haven't waited long enough to see) It is a bit hard to explain so i hope someone understands. Is it supposed to do this, why so? I have a ATI X300 graphics card if that helps.

By the way the only way that I know of how to fix this is if I run Guild Wars. It kinda flashes back to normal once I exit out of Guild Wars.

P.S Is it normal for the game to crash sometimes? (I get the windows error report message)

You might want to check out this site...Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II The Sith Lords - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Specifically the part about Patches and Upgrades.

While I do not have this game, I can surmise that "The game was criticized in a TheForce.Net editorial for being incomplete due to a rushed deadline" might have something to do with your problem.

Yeah I heard about that and I have the latest patch.

I think I solved the problem, when the game window launches and shows the options "play, configure, etc" I hit configure and changed the resolution from 1280X1024 (my screen resolution) to run the game on 800X600 that seemed to solve the problem.
