There are a lot of different varieties of the G72 notebook. Without knowing which exact version you're using (or, at the very least, what processor and gpu is installed on it), it's going to be really difficult to give useful help.

I was able to guess from those specs that it's a G72-b60us or G72-b66us. In either case, it's using a first-generation Intel HD integrated graphics setup which makes it a major surprise that you've got the game working at all (KotOR and KotOR 2, even updated, don't play well with Intel integrated graphics).

My first suggestion is to put the game into Windowed Mode (there's one other option, but I'd suggest to hold off on that for now). Since you already know how to get to the contents of the .ini file, just go ahead and change all of the references for "FullScreen" from 1 to 0, then add "EnableWindowedMode=1" at the bottom of the "[Graphics Options]" section.

While there, I also highly recommend adding spaces between each of the words in "DisableVertexBufferObjects". The config option is supposed to have the spaces, but Steam keeps generating that part of the file wrong, and having that option activated can make a noticeable improvement in graphics performance (in fact, it not being set right and on what is essentially a now-unsupported graphics card may also be contributing to your issue).
