Heya, people at shsforums.

After a long while I wanted to play Icewind Dale 1 again, so I installed the game. All fine so far, but when I start the gameplay everything runs terribly slowly. This is odd since I did play it a few years back on the very same system and then it ran very smoothly.

Before posting here I tried several things to solve this prob:

1. I reinstalled the game a couple of times

2. I set all the graphic and sound settings to lowest. I even set all the sound off. The sound change seemed to help somewhat, but still it's choppy (A friend told me that sound settings may cause choppy gameplay)

3. I tried it with and without the 1.06 patch. No difference

4 I adjusted the cache size, the path search nodes, the AI updates / second. Nihil change. It's nothing compared to how it ran a few years back.

5. I defragmented my system. No effect.

6. I use windows XP and tried compatibility of 98 and 95. No effect.



Maybe I am even forgetting one or two tricks I tried, but so far nothing helped. I'd really really really like to play this game and so I hope one of the folks on this forum can help me out with this.

Thanks in advance,

Kerstman
