Crash To Dekstop

[*Robbythedude]

UPDATE3:

I've started to run it in Windowed Mode, and have figured out that it's my display drivers crashing.
In windowed mode, the game will reboot once the drivers reboot, so the game is now more playable.
Still an error though, if any help is possible.
Thanks!

I'll try the suggestions you guys said after work!
Thanks.

This has nothing to do with your server, but I'm just looking here for interest.
I'm trying to play on your server, but I keep crashing to desktop.

Problem Description: The game will load properly, and everything seems to be working dandy. Suddenly, the game just crashes to desktop. Sometimes I'm told by Windows to "Search Online for Solution" or "Close Program". Happens bout 5-10 minutes into the game no matter what.

Also, the game sometimes crashes before even loading up the Atari Introduction video, and displays the windows application error box.

I've got DirectX9c, and I can't find .NET 3.5 for Windows 7.

Thanks in Advance
This is the computer it self that I have running the game:

UPDATE1:
Turned all my graphics and such to low.
As low as it can get..
The game looks like utter crap, but it did last longer.
Not by much though, still not playable even with the extended time.

UPDATE2:
If I do not move my character/camera in game, the game does not crash at all. It will simply sit there and characters will walk by, and such animations.
Although, Once I begin to walk and not move my camera at all.. Game crashes after bout 1 minute or so.

Also, all this time the game will crash, but the sounds/ambiance/music still play after crash until i go into Task Manager to end the "Not Responding" NWN2.

First, when running NWN2, make sure that you are running it in "Administrative Mode." Try that first and see if it helps.

If it doesn't...

Though your video card drivers appear up to date, it is possible that you have the wrong version installed compared to the version of Windows that you are running. I know I goofed up and had the same problem, and it was because I installed a 32 bit driver instead of the 64 bit.

Try a fresh install of your video card driver and see if that helps. Be sure to reboot your computer after, etc. etc.

[*Robbythedude]

No change in running in "Administrator Mode".

I tried installing other drivers, but nothing was successful.
Although, I do not know if they are supported by Windows 7 x64.
So, I'm going to have to look into it and try out what I can.

One Question, I uninstall previous display drivers, right?

Does single player work?

Have you been in the new area of the beastlands? I was rolling with two others that were suffering technical difficulties in that new spot, although I wasn't. It may have been a crappy download for some. If so, I'd try reinstalling the module.

Hey, just a thought here. Sometimes there's things you have to do to make NWN 2 run properly on a multiple core system, depending on your operating system. Despite being told that NWN 2 is fine to run on multiple cores... i have a dual core system, I had to eventually set something in an INI file to let it know that it had to deal with both cores or try to run on one only. I am not an expert on this, just remember that it was a suggestion that cut down on some crashes I was having.

Problem might also be that window 7 doesn't always play nice with games from XP era. Try searching online for quad core + NWN 2 + crash or something like that, might help you find settings or whatnot that could help.

that app someone showed awhile ago....GET IT. I use it all the time no crashy no more.
