| Bug # | Description | Status | Resolution | Other apps affected |
Multiple users reported that Neverwinter Nights might present problems when running it on a machine with an ATI card.
In order to avoid that, rename the main program file nwmain.exe to something else, like nwmain2.exe. The driver seems to try some optimizations otherwise, which are actually backfiring and causing issues with the game.
IGN doesn't host the patches anymore either They can now be found here: http://neverwintervault.org/patches(thanks to Chris!)
