niffi91: I just bought Neverwinter Nights Diamond, but the game is lagging rediculously much. Right from the beginning when I start the single player campaign, everything is lagging. If I click on the ground for the character to move there, nothing happens for a few seconds and then the character kind of just appears there, as if the FPS are lower than 1. Even when I bring up the menu while still in the loaded game it lags. In the main menu, it is lag free.

I have googled this problem and I have tried "changing" to "Windows XP SP2" and also lowering the colors. I have checked the number of cores of the CPU (which by default was set to only one (which was suggested online)) and also the suggested sound settings checks out. All drives are updated too. Changing graphics doesn't change anything and I know my computer can run the game.

I use windows 10 on my computer.

Any suggestions as to what might be the problem and how to fix it? I read that I can get the money back, but I really prefer to make the game work instead.

Edit: I made it to the second area and it took several minutes for this area to load. It is like the computer is choosing not to give this game any effort, resulting in it being incredibly slow.

Goodaltgamer: Did you give this a try?

Are you using a onboard GPU or dedicated GPU?

Not sure if it might help.....dgVoodoo, might be worth a try....

BUT, loading taking ages would normally exclude GPU.....did you check, if for any reason your antivirus might get triggered? Would explain the slow loading of the second area.....
