Default Not responding at character select screen

Hi, I'm having some problems connecting to P99. I have gone though every site I can think of an settings and it goes to "not responding" just after I select the server to login.

I have tried CPU affinity 0, sett Power Managements to 100% and performance in Nvidia card to max performance. Also tried WinEQ. Compatibility mode XP (sp2) with administrative privlages. Live Everquest works fine from another Everquest directory. I'm running SoF and made the BAT file to load the models. I'm empty for ideas, but guess its a setting in the video card or the xeon processors.

Followed these guides:

How far do you get in the login process? Can you see the server select screen? If so, is it black (with no servers to select?) or is it when you select the P1999 server that it says its not responding?

Have you got a firewall up? Try disabling it for 5/10 minutes to see if that's what's causing it.

Also, Secrets of Faydwer isn't supported on P99 anymore (it used to be). You might have to "find" EQ Titanium "on the internet" and try a fresh install. There's a link at the top of this forum to the Duxa installer... I found that helped a lot not only with the installation but also the setup of spell gems etc [You must be logged in to view images.

I tried Duxa installer. I can select the server and then a new window opens. This is where it freezes.

That will really suck if Secrets of Faydwer does not work anymore. I bought mine from Ebay in US and had to have relatives ship it to Norway. It was listed here as still supported on eqemulator...

I don't have any extra firewalls up than the basic windows one. I will keep checking.

I'm not sure what it was about SoF that stopped it being used here.

If you have a second PC/laptop/etc around, or a good samaritan friend who'll let you install it onto his to test it... double check its not something specific to your PC/setup.

Also, try logging onto "The Hidden Forest" or PEQ... see if you make it to the character select screen.

That Emu info is for all the servers that are on the emulated network. P99 specifically needs titanium to work. Just download it from the bay.
