Post subject:  Windows 7 and NWN

The time has come to actually consider giving up my Windows XP and upgrading to Windows 7. In order to do this the windows download advisor says that I'll have to do a complete clean installation (never done that? keeping fingers crossed I don't fry my computer), but it also said that Neverwinter Nights won't be compatible. Does anyone know of a patch out there or is anyone currently using Windows 7 and NWN? This is a shared computer with two amia users and I don't want to ruin it :? so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You have to set it to run as admin to install. And then have to download the critical rebuild from bioware for it to properly patch to 1.69.

Other than that it's fine.

Great thing about nwn is that its old enough to work when you copy+paste it from an external hardrive.

Which turned out really useful for me when Windows exploded

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit, since I bought my new laptop. No problems here.

The only issue you'll have is if you decide to get a dx11 supported Graphics Card (which until Fermi's released, ATI's the only seller). The drivers seem to chew nwn and spit it out in annoyance because its so old.

Also disable advanced Catalyst A.I., Standard is fine. Advanced causes all sorts of wonky stuff to go wrong.
