Blue Screen When I alt-tab

Post by sexy and brooding dark lord » Fri Oct 19, 2018 10:59 pm

Hello!

Inside of the arcane tower and outside of it (i have only been after these zones after re-installing the game) I get a blue screen when I try to alt tab, also the game dosen't run very fluidly. The error I get is "driver irql not less or equal". I tried to follow some solutions I found online but they weren't of any help. Hopefullly you can help me resolve this issue, thanks in advice.

The computer runs on windows 10 and it has run NWN:EE without these problems before.

Well, without a specific code, that could mean a number of things, but I'd advise starting by updating your drivers, especially for your graphics card.

To avoid the crash, you might try switching to window mode (alt+enter) before alt-tabbing. Also, when you're on your desktop with the game running, pull up the task manager and see what your processor and memory utilization are.
