For the love of god let me play!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

booted after server select with no error. getting pretty frustrated with this. Ive spent hours trying to get it to work. Has my ip been blocked or something?

Greetings. What patch files are you currently running? Are you trying to create a character out of era (Gnome Paladin for instance)?

Post your Everquest/Logs/dbg.txt file. If its too large to post directly here, use pastebin and share the link. Have you ever ran the eqgame file without blocking the patcher? I've sent you a PM as well with something you can try.

hopefully I am not breaking the rules by posting a link here, but this is what I followed to get my game installed.

dude makes it pretty easy to get the game going. took me about 20 minutes and I am bad at computer crap.

While I have no idea what WorldAuthenticate Checkpoint 3 is (maybe Llandris or a dev could help you on that) I've found a similar issue in some archived posts on p99 here which seem to point at it being an overclocking issue.

Are you overclocking your CPU or anything else?

I think it maybe but, it was the person who sold it to me. I'm not good with bios i don't know how to throttle it back
