Hello

I have a problem in Shaengarne Bridge. Just after the battle starts, my game crashes. Sometimes after 5 seconds, sometimes after 30, but it always crashes. The following error is produced:

"assertion failed in cstore.cpp at line number 200"

I googled it. Seems many people have it, but noone has solution. Any compatibility modes, nor graphical settings, replaying the game, reinstalling, nothing helps.

Moreover, when I bought a scroll case, the game would crash after a few seconds with the exact same message. My googling revealed that this error appears when the party has containers (gem bags, scroll cases, etc.) I simply accepted I won't be able to use such items. But now I can not progress even without using them.

I've read that one of the enemies in this location has bag of holding on him. I wonder if this can be the cause?

Any advice?

Ok, I managed to get through the battle by disabling my antivirus software.

Glad you fixed your problem. I started playing IWD2 on Windows 7 recently and it seems to have short 'crashing fits' from time to time. In my case, it was totally stable until a point in Act 3 where it crashed three or four times in a row. Then all was quiet again until Act 4 where it crashed a couple of times again...

Not sure what the cause is, but it isn't serious enough to be game-breaking. Just have to be diligent with the quick saving.

I don't have any crashes now, provided I turn off my AV during the game. I can even use containers now. Not a single crash.
