[QUOTE="Rl'Halsinor, post: 3033151, member: 19772"] I decided after a long hiatus to install NWN and both expansions on my new PC so that I could enjoy some of the newer community mods. The following are my system specs: XP w/SP2 Athlon 64 3200+ cpu 2 gigs of DDR 3200 RAM M-Audio Revolution 5.1 sound card X800 GTO 256 meg video card View Sonic LCD screen * Both sound and video card have the latest drivers. I've defragged, scanned for viruses and spyware. When I played this on my old PIII system with a 1.2 Ghz cpu, 512 megs of PC 133 RAM and an ATI 9200 video card it ran fine (though I would experience severe FPS slow down from time to time). I can run Dungeon Siege II, C&C Generals and even Divine Divinity patched with no issues at all. But when I go to load NWN at the Menu screen (not the very first screen that pops up but the one where you have the options of "new," "load," etc.) I keep getting the infamous error report and Windows must shut it down. By the way, when I stalled this game - twice - I shut down my firewall, spy sweeper, and anti-virus programs before installing. 1. I've tried it in game version 1.59 (the one it shipped as) and the latest 1.67. Same thing. 2. Both installs were clean and all indication was that all files took and it still will not play. 3. I shut down my firewall after installing, but that didn't help. Anyone have any clues? Advice? I came across another person on a different forum who is running into the same thing. He could play it on his old system but on his new one will not load the game either. Atari's tech help is no help at all. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
