Not sure on 7. I just reinstalled on Vista 64bit and no problems thusfar.

Tried it with Win 7 64-bit. Ran fine without any problems. In case you run into problems, use the Windows XP compatibility mode.

I can only add one thing about your CPU. NWN2 doesn't utilize two cores, only one.. That means your cpu it is the equivalent of a single 2.4 Ghz core for the purpose of playing this game. Now.. 2.4 Ghz isn't bad, I used to have that myself on a single core system. If you are going to notice a speed difference or light stuttering at all it will be during the Official Campaign, and not the expansions. They coded better and run slightly smoother.

All I'm saying is not to expect the CPU performance of an Intel duo core for this game. It will be an old Intel Pentium 3 or AMD Athlon XP. I can't speak for the rest of your system components, they may very well make up for that.

I played NWN 2 on an inferior machine without any problems albeit with reduced settings. I'd wager you wouldn't run into too many problems
