Hey,

its not a big deal as I play on my new PC but its quite annoying as I used to used my laptop as NWN developing machine and now its not very friendly.

Month ago, I had to reinstall my OS and than I installed newest drivers for my graphic card (without them I had other issues I guess). And now NWN is horribly slow, when I run nwmain.exe a black screen even appear for few seconds and until I exit NWN whole laptop is slowed... I tried to get older drivers, but they weren't available.

I didn't tried reverting to default win drivers yet as I think that had its own issues...
So anyone knows where to get some NWN compatible drivers or the problem is elsewhere?

Specs:
Laptop: Acer Expensa 5220
- Processor: Intel celeron 530, 1.7ghz
- Graphic: Mobile Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100
- RAM: 512 DDR2
OS: Win XP professional, SP 2
NWN: Patch 1.69, all expansions ofc

Yo ShaDoOoW!

Did you happen to come across this fix suggestion in your travels?  It's a Win7 thread but has a interesting installation method described.

This is an integrated graphic chip, right?

EDIT: ok that link goes on official nvidia site, I have been there but there are only two versions, one is 2010 oldest is 2009

EDIT2: just tried to revert to old graphic drivers from CD, same issue, these are from 2007

Slowed is usually the processor affinity setting in the nwn ini. Have a play with it. usually 0 or 1

Affinity didnt helped, was 0, setting to 1 has no effect, more specifically, if I run NWN client, the whole computer is much slower than used to be - when moving in area its choppy, Im using windowed mode too.

EDIT: All graphic at minimum, only enviroment mapping and enable texture animations allowed. 2D miles audio.
