    I have just finished a major upgrade on my pc and am still having laggy video in Neverwinter Nights 2.

    I have an GeForce FX 5200 AGP 256 mb video
    Celeron D 3.4 gHz processor
    2 gb of ram
    Win XP Pro SP2 w/ all patches & updates
    Direct X 9.0c
    112 mb of hd space free
    I have set all of the video settings in NWN2 set all the way down lowest settings
    And I closed all programs running in the background just to be sure

    The FX 5200 is not listed on either supported or unsupported cards and after upgrading the rest of my system I really don't want to have to buy a new video card.

    no way in hell a 5200 is gonna run that game. I used to have one, it got me by, but its not nearly up to par for a game like nwn2

    the setting that will have the most effect on that card is the resolution. set it as low as it can go, set all the settings to low, then start moving up in the settings until you find a good balance between playability and visuals

    also make sure that no anti-aliasing or anisotropic filtering is enabled
