OK - you may be a little suprised that NwN actually runs on this, and sometimes on the larger maps it is terribly laggy.

500MHz
128MB RAM
8MB nVidia Vanta
128kilobit/s ADSL
Win98SE

And I don`t think I am going to be able to play online, it is laggy enough on single player.

I think it's because you're running Win98, Scholarcs...I couldn't get the performance I wanted using 128MB of RAM on WinXP so I went and got an extra 128MB. Runs fine now.

It helps if you switch off stuff like your Norton AV AutoProtect while you're playing - it does speed it up noticeably.

I built my own just so I could play Morrowind ,Dungeon Siege,& Neverwinter Nights and not have the problem the low power units seem to have,and only cost me $525.00 total (tech school pays off big time)
1.I started with the D850GB Intel desktop motherboard.
Added the 1.6 Megahertz Intel Pentium 4 Processor,8 kilobyte
primary memory cache & 256 kilobyte Secondary memory
cache.
2. 2/128 Megabyte memory modules total 256 Megabytes Installed
Memory. can still add 2 more later
3.Added 2/40GB hard drives found to work faster than 1/80GB and that
way I have a fire wall to keep my games played on the Internet from
the main copies of my games in case of a Virus.
4.ATI Radeon 7500 Video Card (the Graphics are Fantastic)and so far
I've never had a crash of any game of any type !!!
5.Sound Blaster audio PCI,this I plan to upgrade soon but for now it
works just fine.
6.Altec/Lansing 3 piece speaker system and Benwin 2 speaker system
conected by using a philips (Magnavox) Stero Duplex Adapter its
was designed to allow two headphones to be used at the same time
But all it does is allow you to plug in two stereo mini plugs at
the same time and since both systems have their own power amps
built in it doesn't draw any extra power off the computer, but
the sound is awsome.

Current System:

P4 1.4Ghz (Socket 423)
256 rdram memory
40GB harddrive
GeForce 2 pro 64mb ddr
Sound Blaster Live!Value
Altec Lansing 4.1 speakers

The gameplay and graphics run smoothly right now in 1024X768 resolution, but the sound tweaks a bit throughout the game. I wonder if it's my soundcard problem???
