Hi P99ers

I've been struggling with this reset device() issue on my new machine since last spring. I feel like I've spent months trying so many things to eliminate it.

In my troubleshooting I got things to what seemed like a stable running game about 99% of the time however recently I seem to have taken 3 steps back and am now crashing, routinely, in my favorite goto exp zone.

One thing unique is that I seem to crash in the same vicinity every time. If I am going to crash I kind of know where in the zone its going to happen, this is not always avoidable and certainly not preferred.

All the online troubleshooting talks about switching from full screen to windowed mode. That is not my case. I get this error just by simply playing.

Last night I hit a new low coming out of sky hoping to get a little exp. I died twice from two crashes and ended up with less XP than I had going in.

I am wondering if anyone else has encountered this? I am not sure what else I can do? It is very disappointing.

So far the biggest improvement has been running EQ in windeq2 but even still I crash at specific spots. Does anyone have any other advice?

Basic System Specs
AMD 3700x
32GB memory
RTX 2070 Super

I run in winEQ2. I have play nice turned off but am now experimenting with turning it on, it makes some things slow. I have CPU affinity set to a single core. I limit frames to 60fps. My monitor is 4k but I run EQ in wineq2 at 1080.

Let me know if there is anything else I can share. I am getting a bit desperate so any advice is appreciated.
Have you read/tried any of this:
