For the life of me I can't get Neverwinter Nights 2 to load. I've got the Steam version, and when I start it up, all I get is a black screen. If I didn't have a second monitor, I'd probably have to hard reset my computer to get out of it, but even if I go to task manager, I can't kill it. I've tried drat near everything - I've reinstalled the Visual C++ 2005 and 2008 runtimes, reinstalled .NET, DirectX, the game, tried setting its' affinity to single-core with a shortcut as well as from the task manager, tried fixing the .ini file to point at the right physical drive for a disc, everything. I just wanted to play this miserable game and absolutely nothing is making a difference, except when I set it to windowed mode, it loads windowed mode, but still does the same thing. The only way I can get out is to restart my computer, which is a pain in my rear end. Has anyone else run into this? What did you do to resolve it? I fix computers for a living and quite frankly it's getting absurd that I can't solve this. EDIT: Hey system specs might help: Core i5-3570, Geforce 660 Ti, 16gb of RAM, Windows 7 Pro x64. I previously had a system with Vista x64, a Core 2 Quad, and a Radeon 4850, and that could run the game just fine.

Scorchy posted:Video card/driver or DRM issue? Check the Windows event log and see if there was anything funky in there. I have the latest drivers, and I've checked the event log thoroughly and found nothing. I've heard some people have had luck getting a copy of the actual game disks and installing from those, but I'd rather not it unless it's the only way.

Raygereio posted:NWN2's DRM was removed with a patch. And besides, it wasn't anything fancy - just standard securom. And the Steam version just has steamworks. This didn't work either. I can't believe I'm being beaten by this game.
