hello folks, i have this problem with icewind dale II. the game quits everytime when i am moving something in inventory, and doesnt say a word about it. no error message. it happens only when i am in inventory... the game runs good otherwise.

i tried to reinstall but it still happens. got ver.1 tho, so i will upgrade but still this wasnt happening when i had IDII ver.1 last time... and i played it to the end (some minor bugs occured tho but not this one).

anyone knows ho to solve this?

cheers,
Orinn

I didn't see this thread. I have the same prob. WHen I try to memorize a spell/or view a weapon via right clicking on it, it freezes.

K, i fixed my prob, maybe this will fix yours too. I went to the windows start menu, and went into the Black Isle folder, to IWD2, then to the install/uninstall option. Then a pop up came up, asking if I wanted to modify, repair or remove the program. I chose repair, and it fixed the prob for me.

thanks for tip but i already installed the patch and it fixed the problem... tho in the latest version they lowered the power of 'summon undead' spell so you cant get the cool apocaliptic boneguard so i may be changing back :]

theCheat is right. You most likely just had a problem with your install. The repair option in the uninstall menu just re-installs the game. This is often the best fix for many game bugs.
