Hello,

I've spent about 2-3 hours working on this on my own with 0 success. At first I would get a hard crash when the game started, but using http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Other.Detail&id=1222 fixed now. However, now when I get to the point where I select a module and on-wards (When ever something is actually being rendered) I have between 0-3 FPS, and nothing better, ever. I've tried changing every video setting. Only resolution has an effect, upping the fraterate to around 3-5 FPS @ 800x600, anything else I have less then a frame a second. I've run the critical update, tried disabling audio, using every different audio options, running windowed, CPU affinity changes though both the nwnplayer.ini and task manager, the July 2010 DX installer, Catalyst settings, Every compatibility setting/run as administrator, I can't even enable shiny water.

I'm running on an I7 @ 3.6 GHZ, ATI HD5870, 8 gigs of RAM, integrated audio.

I'm sure there are other things I've tried that I've forgotten, so feel free to mention whatever. Thanks.

Updated - A fresh install fixed everything. I didn't have the initial crashing issue, didn't need any patch. Weird. I'd delete the thread but I don't see how.

It's best not to delete these things so that other people can know how you fixed your problem. No matter your problem, it's often repeated somewhere.

Thanks for posting your fix (re-install) and I'm glad you got it working!

I have the same graphic card and while I DO have more than 1 fps, it does feel like playing the game on a computer that can barely handle the graphics. The strange thing is that it did work at one point. I went back the game recently and found myself back at the horribly low fps. I'll try reinstalling the game and share the result
