I found a previous thread (wonder why I didn't do that to begin with). The sp 3 redirect thing with admin mode did the trick. Thanks again. I love you!

| Post subject: | Can't.. get.. NWN.. to... work *exhales* |
Howdy hey. Since my pc is temporarily out of order, I installed NWN on a newly purchased laptop. After installing and updating what can be updated, I click "play" and get the NWN logo.. a few seconds later the game ceases to load. It abrubtly ends without as much as a warning or clarification as to why. I tried lowering the game settings, but to no avail. It just stops... Please help! Any suggestions as to why this is, and what can be done about it? Thanks in advance! |

You need to skip intro's in the Ini. Put this in under [Display Options] Disable Intro Movies=1 |

You can't run from the autorun. It doesn't work post-XP. You need to run straight from the exe (as Derk said). You should also skip the intro movies (as Selvec said) and look for Dwagin's post of a million different things to fix various problems. |

I always change mine over to run in admin mode as well as in compatibility mode for Windows XP (SP2). Works every time. I have that same problem any time I reload. |

Yeah, I have Win7 64-bit and I made the NWN launcher run in Admin mode and it works just fine. No compatibility mode, either. Good to see it's working now! |

I got it to run on my laptop with a lot of fiddling, but is there a workaround for all the crashing? |

Have you tried Dwagin's download? I know mine used to crash a lot, and now it runs reasonably smoothly (at eighty degrees c >.>) |
