New Problem

[Beldhar Stormstalker]

Hello Ellia...

So, from what you say, this time the game crashes after launching the executable? How soon the "crash" happens? Before character selection? After character selection, while you are zoning into the game world? While you are ingame?

Also, you mentioned you have a machine running Windows XP SP3, with a GeForce FX5200... could you provide what processor, how much RAM you have (and motherboard maker/model if possible, if not it's ok)?

Ok, sort of fixed it by opening EQ in a windowed verson vs full screen.

A problem I noticed is that if you partition your drives and install EQ on one of them and not your windows partition, I would have to uninstall and reinstall every 2-3 days. Otherwise I would get the "eqgame.exe has encountered a problem" message.

This has nothing to do with partitions in general ... sounds to me as if your second partition is fooked, try to format it to get rid of the bad sectors ... run a scandisk before so the sectors all get marked ...
