What video card? Have you got the newest drivers? I find that the drivers will make a huge different. Even in ping times which absolutely sounds ridiculous, but it does.

which video card is it?

White areas are normally a Video card or driver issue.

I saw a response of the Hala boards that you may need to find an older version of your video drivers.

I have had this issue before. it is 100% your graphics driver. With new cards you oftern need to instal an older driver to get NWN working. It runs ok on intel intergrated graphics cards though (only ok mind you)

If you are up for it, one trick is to install a virtual XP on yoursystem and run NWN on that, with older drivers. That way you can still run all your flash bang games too.
