Spelunking bug! Help, please.

[xboy]

I cannot go into the caves in OC <chapter two> or in SOU.
Whenever I go into the goblin cave entrances the load bar goes 80% of the way and freezes. I have to alt-tab to program manager and shut down the game. I did not have this problem on the NWN OC I had bought when it was first released. Just on Diamond edition.

1 gig of memory/40 gig available space on HD/Radeon 9500 Pro card

I have the Diamond edition fully updated.

My video/sound card drivers are recently updated. DX 9c updated.

"Shiny water" option turned off.

I've tried with the sound off and different graphics options.

................what else do I need to do? There is no help for this in the technical forums.

Thanks in advance.

Sounds as if the gamefiles are corrupt. So either it is the installation - which is easiest to test by reinstalling the game, or it is the files on the CD, which you can test by installing it on another computer (or possible harddrive if you have additionals).

Other then that - I can't really think of issues which could cause this.
