1. Make sure EQ is not in a protected directory such as "program files" - move it to anywhere else x:\games\everquest - whatever.

2. If you're crashing on camping use xp compatibility mode (for either sp2 or sp3 - try both) on eqgame.exe

3. to install dgvoodoo2 you simply copy the files into your eq directory. You don't need to touch any existing files. You may want to use the config exe or edit the INI to remore the watermark from the lower-right corner after you get it working (useful at first so you know its working).

4. Your original error is along the lines Simani was working - your windowed/fullscreen resolution is invalid for the client. It works best with 4:3 aspect ratios and then you can tweak it to your heart's content once you get it working. I find it works best to get it stable in a window, and then start playing with the fullscreen resolutions in the ini until you find both a windowed and fullscren res you can live with.
