Resolution was 800x600x32 as recommended by the setup program. I suppose I could try other resolutions or turn off features.
System is a AMD 1.2GHz with 768MB RAM running w2k with aforementioned SBLive and GeForce2 Ultra.
I've had other games (Warcraft II and DungeonSiege) reboot the system, but it would only happen after extended play, and in the later case, seemed to be EAX (sound) related. The NWN problem happens very quickly into the game. The errors are of this style:
Application popup: Neverwinter Nights v1.22.6729: nwmain.exe -
Application Error : The instruction at "0x0d7be9f0"
referenced memory at "0xffeffe4e".
The memory could not be "written".
Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
I take it that is w2k's version of the "Illegal Operation", GPF, UAE errors of Windows' past?
I worry it might be heat related. Its been hot here and I haven't had the AC running this weekend. Maybe the game is pushing my system hard enough to affect stability? Maybe I'll turn up the AC and see if things change.
PS: Were you just kidding about the w2k defrag or ...
