When DA2 performed its initial system scan, it automatically selected DX11; however, I don't have a DX11 capable video card.

The DA2 performance was horrible, with constant crashing, freezing, hanging, stuttering.  You name it, I was experiencing it (even the audio was screwed up).

From reading a ton of comments on these forums from folks having similar problems, I was able to piece together two very simple solutions.

From the main DA2 access screen on Desktop, click Configuration, and then Video in the Config window.
1) Uncheck Full Screen, wait about 5 seconds, and then recheck Full Screen
2) In the Renderer pulldown menu, select DX9

DA2 now runs smoothly, no problems.  With 8x AA selected, I still get anywhere from 60 - 135 FPS.

Many thanks to the fine folks on these forums who came up with these solutions.

I'm running Win7 64-bit.  After installing the latest Nvidia beta driver (267.24), I was still having all the problems noted above before making the changes that fixed the problems.  So it seems the problems aren't related to Win7 64-bit nor to the Nvidia drivers, and DA2 doesn't need a patch for these problems, in my humble opinion.

Hope this works for all the users who own older GeForce video cards (7000, 8000, 9000, 200 series) having these same problems.

While your graphics card does lack Dx11, it was a High End card when it was new, a few years ago, and it does follow the overall architecture design that is characteristic of current Geforce GTX400 (fermi) designs. It can potentially run the "High Quality" Dx10 graphics, which do need the renderer set to Dx11.

Unlike the 7n00, 8n00, and 9n00 cards, which represent a different pattern of GPU architecture, your card responds well to the majority of recent Geforce drivers. That situation, regrettably, does not apply for this game with those still-older Geforces. Basically, a majority of drivers from the past 18-24 months literally "break" Bioware's games for those cards.
