Infrequent screen lockups

Hi All,

Ive had to recently re-copy my entire EQ installation folder. Since then I've been experiencing some weird behavior thats preventing me from soloing.

Essentially I get weird infrequent 1-2 second screen lockups. Everything on screen locks up and after the 1-2 seconds it continues on as normal. This essentially makes bard swarm kiting impossible as during the time I lock it seems my character stops running and takes a beating!

The lockups are random, and infrequent. But do happen frequent enough that I can't get a single kite in without running the risk of dieing.

Anyone have any thoughts? On this very same system it worked fine yesterday. Since I've got a fresh copy of EQ game files however something is messed up?

Seems to be zone specific now. Only happened so far in Overthere

NM seems to be all over. Any ideas on client settings I can change to improve this?

Doesnt seem to happen in windowed mode. But I prefer fullscreen mode...

Going to try wineq2 tonight.

WINeq2 did nothing. I am sad to say however that the issue lies with my SSD. Once I launched EQ from my 1TB platter drive i never experienced these issues. Too bad I won't be able to zone fast, that was much fun. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
