Just upgraded to 2gb of ram for my PC. Ever since then, whenever I play multiplayer NWN, my system locks up. I've played Singleplayer fine, as well as tried other games, BF2 and Oblivion. Both run without any problems.

Whenever I try NWN in multiplayer it crashes when I try to exit the game, occasionally while loading an area, and if I try to start up any other programs while playing. It was never an issue before I upgraded, and I am baffled as to why it only freezes when I'm playing multiplayer.

If anyone has any insight as to what is causing this, your help would be greatly appreciated. It saddens me that I try to make my PC better and it just causes problems. :(

Unfortunately, the appearent upgrade is the only thing that has changed, as you report it, so I'd look there. I'd begin by running memtest on each individual dimm, both of the new dimms together, and finally all four dimms. It is a time consuming process, but it is just about the only way to tell if a stick is "bad."

Reformatting is not out of the question here either...many people do it after a hardware upgrade, and even though it's an easy way out of a problem, it often -is- a solution.
