Hi David,

That's great news! Looks like you found the right driver combo for
Neverwinter Nights to work properly on your system. Now you
might want to try the patch for the game if you haven't already:

| Software Rebuilt my system with all my drivers installed excluding SP2,
| DirectX 9C and the lated NVIDIA drivers and imaged it. Installed the latest
| reference drivers, then DirectX 9c and then played Neverwinter Nights - did
| the same it did previously. Then I restored the image and installed an
| alternative set of optimized driver which used the NVIDA reference Forceware
| 66.93 drivers as a base - just played nearly 1.5 hours straight in
| Neverwinter Nights with a resolution of 1024x768x32bit without a crash - what
| do you think is happenning - could it be the driver version I am trying to
| use with my Geforce 4 MX 440 AGP card is the Forceware 77.72 drivers?
