« on: January 19, 2010, 08:18:51 PM »
Nwn working perfect and running smoothly, that be before i update it to 1.69 though a critical update...
after the update be done and i chose to play NWN and the NWN loader starts it just shuts down.

I am on windows 7 if that have any meaning.

 After the update you might have to set it to administrator mode again, and re-set the emulation mode, if it made a new icon.

The CEP won't have any effect on your NWN installation.

Right click the Icon for it, select properties.
Compatability mode will have its own tab, set it to windows XP (I run mine under service pack 2)
Under 7 the box for running it as an administrtor is in the same tab.  This needs to be set for nwn.exe or nwmaiin.exe, depending which you load into.

HAHA..far from a hacker as you may have noticed by now but i got this one to work now it seems.

Now to the new problem for is the CEP_22_Full_c3...When i try run this one nothing seems to happend, same was last night when i tried it...i left the computer for ten minutes and nothing seems to happend at all. I know this one can take some time, but it sure not took a full 10 Min's for anything to happend on my last computer.
Ideas?
