Yeah, Windows Firewall is disabled and no anti-virus software installed (despite the McAfee icon on the desktop).

Is this so you could run the NWN Server? If so...you don't need to do that >_>

Well, I'm having some problems with NWN Server right now. I'll turn it back on once I get that resolved.

nwserver.exe -should be running as admin
Allow the exe's exception in Windows Firewall
port-forward 5121 (or what ever port you specified for the server)
That's all I had to do :P
Oh Lyrasia...how I've missed thee

OK, so I already had it running as admin. I'll look into the Windows Firewall exception. I believe the port is forwarded but I'll double check.
So far it's a bit inconsistent, sometimes I can log in through the server menu, sometimes I can log in by direct connect to the IP. Most of the time it times out when trying to connect. Also, is the authentication server down for everyone or is that just me?
Finally, after searching the BioWare forums, it turns out that nVidia GeForce 4xx series and later uses some newer version of OpenGL or possibly OpenGL is no longer a standard. Whatever the reason, I'm stuck at 15 FPS in-game and it sucks. I found a workaround someone posted to NWVault but I'm dubious about installing this kind of thing.
I think it may just be easier to hook the old XP computer back up and plug it into our new Ethernet switch. That way I have the best of both worlds. Just need a box so I can switch over my mouse/keyboard/monitor on the fly. Do they still make that kind of thing?
Anyway, thanks the suggestions! I'll post my results here once I try them out.
