Still not buying it, I've been running Windows 10 since at least November 2015, EQ has always been in c:\sony\everquest... and I've never experienced the "snowball" effect. And as a side note, my EQ directory has been outside of C:\program files & c:\program files (x86) since my account create date on these forums with out the "snowball" crashing issue.

Well than consider yourself the 1% of EQ, cause it is happening people are just doing the short fixes and not posting about it.

I would like to know how you install your client. From a downloaded ISO , Duxia , or actual discs.

Maybe that plays a factor in it as well.

Also do you use WinEQ, Launch.bat or another way to log into the client. Since you are untouched maybe we could get some info off how you go about getting in game and keeping yourself from crashing.

Years ago, circa late 2010, I downloaded the .iso files and had installed them on a Windows 7 machine. However that install has been copied from that machine to every new machine I use. This current machine that I'm typing on has never had EQ "installed" rather the directory from a "working" machine copied to it. this is the same directory that I use on my desktop. I use no 3rd party applications to launch it, I've simply created a shortcut to my eqgame.exe and launch, make sure you include the patchme argument. A screen shot of that shortcut that I use can be found in this forum.

I believe its related to the app running in full screen/focus.

I often see this in dual screen config (fullscreen on screen 1) but I have not had this with the second screen disabled.

Not sure what the answer is yet.

The info on directories is just non-sense, even if you had a non admin account it would still work by redirecting to a virtualstore. (Vista onwards)

Every now and the I mess around with appcompat shims but I am finding it mostly its the legacy dx7 stuff flagging problems.

I run 1 monitor

windowed mode eq (not fullscreen)

resolution changes dont affect this crash for me.

I get it about 80% of the time

50% of the time i can log right back into the game the other 50 i have to wait for IP block to get pushed out.

Sony folder in root C directory...

Still getting it, sadface.

I got a new PC and everytime I camp from a character, at 0 seconds I get a crash.

Then to log into another character or account I have to wait until the IP block is up.. or my LD self has dissipated.. whatever you want to call it.

Is there any idea what can cause these crash on camp outs? any advice for trouble shooting my system to see what the problem is?
Have you seen this error with any other applications or the OS itself?
How much RAM does the machine have?
Have to adjusted the paging file size or location?
Have you run the built-in memory diagnostic?
Have you tried reinstalling Titanium and just copying your UI and settings back over?

Have you tried reinstalling Titanium and just copying your UI and settings back over? I originally unzipped my folder into my programfiles86 folder but copy/pasted that folder to the root C because someone said that may fix it. Its currently at C:/sony/everquest/launch_titanium.bat
