hello all!
I just installed this game yesterday and with your dvr 2.9 on win98 se i get through the add screens and first movie. then i get a blank sceen at the menu screen/with the cursor only. also the movie is jittery, also if i touch anything it crashes to desk top or freezes. i have a pent 3 500 meghtz proc. game, win, drvrs are all updated. i'm pretty good about that.[^]
NWN only works with win98se on my system. win2k and winxp have opengl issues that are not? driver related on ALL opengl games. I am using the tdhq beta10 with the NWN 1.28 patch. you MUST run the desktop resolution one notch HIGHER than the game will be running. and don't forget to run the nwnconfig.exe after setting yer desktop a little higher. the 1.28 patch gives you the correct frequencies for the monitor and helps with the hardware mouse thingy automattically (a checkbox in nwnconfig.exe proggy).
PS. the three title screens and the movie will no longer show up with the desktop setting a little higher but the game runs flawlessly. just click through the blank screens with the space bar and it works.
thank you blood worm.
One driver would run NWN under Win2K :
SolidState Voodoo5 1.00.03Win2k (1.5M) by Nightstormer

you can't see opening credits or movies but they would work perfectly in the game.
yo bloodworm!
tried all that. got the same problem as before i changed to the 3dhq drvs from am drvrs. think i"ll try the drvs optimized for via chips.
thanx any way

Hmmmmm. did you install the latest and greatest via chipset .inf as well as your monitor .inf? make sure you run your desktop at say 1024x768 and then set the game up for 800x600. you must also run the desktop colors at 32bit too. you also need to go into the tdhq folder in program files folder and hit "setup.exe" for the beta10 to install properly and at all. set your desktop at high res THEN do the nwnconfig.exe. it also won't work without SOME patching for nwn. 1.28 seems to work great. DX 8.1b. (NOT dx9.0)
