I got off to a pretty good start with Neverwinter Nights over the last few days. I got it working reasonably well under Windows 10 on my ThinkPad, played through the tutorial, and got started on the first 'chapter.'
Everything works fine, but as soon as I open an area within the toolset the application hangs and then crashes. Even Windows itself isn't able to tell me exactly why it crashes. I'm running Windows 10 x64 with an i7 7700K and GTX1080 running on the latest NVidia drivers. So far the following changes have made no difference:.Running as admin. This is the best soulution when game neverwinter error (not responding) on windows 10 when game is loading. Right click on standard shortcut to the lunching.
post='66457'/post I have the same issues. I turn off Shiny Water and things improve but there are still graphics glitches. I have another system running the same version of Neverwinter Nights but with a GeForce FX 5950 Ultra and if I downgrade to drivers 71.84 the graphics problems in Neverwinter Nights vanish and things look fine. If you need to manually uninstall NEVERWINTER NIGHTS PLATINUM EDITION or NEVERWINTER NIGHTS DIAMOND EDITION, follow these steps: Delete the folder where the game was installed; Remove the entry from the start menu; Remove the following Windows Registry key using RegEdit (Windows + R = regedit.exe).
I had a little trouble with the ThinkPad last night though, so I decided to do some troubleshooting. Which was probably a bad idea, since it led me down a rat-hole that I'm only just now (mostly) dug out of. I won't get into too much detail, but I discovered that I hadn't successfully installed any Windows Updates since April. I eventually figured out that this tip from SuperUser fixed things and allowed me to get back on the update bandwagon again. But then there was so much stuff to update, I had to just leave the laptop running all day. (Which is fine, since I was going to GS Comic Fest anyway.) So, after that was all done, I appear to have an up-to-date Windows 10 install, ready (I hope) for the coming Anniversary Update.

But then I found that Neverwinter Nights didn't work anymore. So, after a bunch of flailing around with settings on that, I finally gave up and uninstalled it, then reinstalled it. Then, tweaked a bunch of parameters. And now I think I have that working again.
At some point in this process, I also uninstalled Norton Anti-Virus. I don't think Norton was the cause of any of my problems, but it seemed like a possible culprit, so I removed it. Now, I'm not sure if I want to add it back or not. I only have about a month to go on my current subscription. Recent news indicates that maybe Norton isn't such a good choice right now, having 'multiple critical vulnerabilities' according to a researcher at Google.
My desktop PC is running McAfee, which came pre-installed, and I haven't (yet) decided to remove it. I can also get a free version of McAfee from my internet provider, so I maybe I should put that on the ThinkPad. But I've never been a big fan of McAfee, so I'm not sure about that. Maybe I'll just stick with Windows Defender for now.

So after all that, I'm ready to jump back into Neverwinter Nights. But, heck, it's just about dinner time now, and I'm tired of messing around on this laptop. So I guess I'll shut it all down and grab a bite to eat.
