BSOD problems with NWN - WingsOfStardust - 01-21-2014
I've so far crashed 6 times with BSOD, in the last 4-5 days (typically when turning NWN off).
- 1 time when playing NWN.
- 4 time(s) when turning it off.
- 1 time when trying to start NWN.
The codes have been:
0x0000003B (update my graphics card): Solved
0x00000050 (frequent)
I've tried different compatibility modes, and seems to make no difference.
Right now I'm going to run a full update on my Win7 x64 Ultimate.
Has anybody else ever had these issues?

What is BSOD?
RE: BSOD problems with NWN - Sten - 01-21-2014
I think BSOD means 'Blue Screen of Death'
But no, I run on a newever Win7 x64 machine myself and while I do crash the game quite often, I've never had BSOD problems with NWN.

I thought it meant Badass Stormtroopers of Destruction, which sounds a lot more fun.

Considering the nature of the problem, if you know how to fix it, you'd know what BSOD is :P

I have had BSOD but not with NWN. You could try this:In order to disable the intro movies for Neverwinter Nights, add the following line under [Display Options] in your nwn.ini file:
Disable Intro Movies=1
Removing the word 'Intro' will disable all movies.
For playing in windowed mode, add the following line under [Display Options] in your nwn.ini file:
AllowWindowedMode=1
...and change FullScreen=1 to FullScreen=0.
Also do you have any browsers or IM's open? Also make sure the bit is set to 32 not 64.
Is NWN made an exception to your anti-virus program?

I run nwn from a short-cut, bypassing intros.
Quote:AllowWindowedMode=1
I really don't like windowed mode.

I had no anti-virus/firewall running when this started happening.
It's not an issue with connectivity or the like.

Ok, well I suggesst following this post. I made it awhile back.
The issue sounds rather recent, so it really shouldn't be your NwN.
You mentioned you had not anti-virus running. Perhaps you have a virus. Also look at any software or hardware updates you may have done.
RE: BSOD problems with NWN - WingsOfStardust - 01-22-2014
After 10-15 Windows updates... (most of them being .NET Framework 3.5.1 security updates)
Seems to have become pretty stable.
I think I know what's causing it now: Tabbing out. After doing such a few times just now, while standing idle in-game: tabbing back in caused a BSOD.
