Not patched?
Graphics card drivers need an update? Engine differences? System requirements are greater for BG2 than for IWD2? Requires more RAM etc? Settings are on maximum for BG2 and on minimum for IWD2? You are running BG2 at a higher resolution/colour depth than IWD2? I don't know. Throw me a frickin' bone here

Disable your 3d accelorator for BG2, cuz bg2 doesn't even use it and it slows the game down.
1. go to start 2. select 'run' 3. type in dxdiag 4. go to display tab. 5. disable the 3d accelorator

also, what resolution are you running bg2 in? Higher, unsupported resolutions tax your machine more.
