I installed NWN onto a laptop with Windows 7 and it worked perfectly, out of box, first time. Upon trying to install it on my PC it's been a real bugger. The frame rate fluctuates the game stutters and moving the camera greatly exacerbates it.
I've followed several fixes on the forums:
The installation guide from Bioware forums
Compatibility mode
Disabling Catalyst AI
Several .ini fixes
binkw32.dll fix
Re-installing
Re-re-installing to different hard drive
Latest video and audio drivers
Switching up sound options in-game
Disabling shiny water
All to no change. Some things made it all worse, some made it crash more. Both the laptop and the PC are running AMD cards and windows 7. I've tried different combinations of the compatibility options (XP SP2/3, etc).
Is there a fix I'm missing?
