I bought this game in the December and just got around to it today. when trying to create my first character though I found that I could not name him for some reason. The naming field was automatically filled with nothing but the number 7. I want to play this game, but I really don't feel like walking around with the name 77777777777777 in it. If anyone can help, it would be highly appreciated.

A similar issue was posted Here in the IWD forums. Turned out to be an admin rights issue. Check out the link. Perhaps it will give you some ideas to solve it.

I've had this issue pop up twice, and I've seen it in these forums three times. With me, the issue randomly appeared and disappeared...not an admin issue.
