Okay, I may try that. Right now I'm using the A_Run_Everquest.bat where you run it off of a random core from your CPU. I took out the two DLL files that EQWin didn't like but I'm not using EQWin at all now. I just had a Visual C++ Error I think it was, but I was logging back and forth between accounts 4-5 times real quick so...if that is the worse thing I'll take it. Two and a half hours in North Wing of HS, 0 faults. I did have a hitch in FV where my screen just froze and stopped and I was waiting for the error. Nothing came, I Just Alt+Tabbed to full screen and back out again, no crash. That is when I was using the Launch_Titanium.bat file, so it makes me wonder if that is what the /wait part you put in it. No idea, honestly.

The game seems to run smoother this way, like my FPS is actually good. Could be in my head. I wished I would have did one thing at a time to narrow down the fix but...Killing my duo partner in HS and myself and waiting for a CR really just dampers the mood.

Here is to hoping it'll be a success!

So, something I found in my never ending search to prevent crashing was from a Dev on Day Break's forum, https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/...failed.253742/ It was one of the two changes I made, the other being I set my game to run off of one core at random as the wiki suggest.

Please add this line to your eqclient.ini:
GraphicsDLL9=EQGraphicsDX9.DLL

I also recommend updating the existing CPUAffinity lines:
CPUAffinity0=-1
CPUAffinity1=-1
CPUAffinity2=-1
CPUAffinity3=-1
CPUAffinity4=-1

I haven't crashed since my original post, but I do freeze. I've only had three in game freezes since that day, and alt+enter twice works every time so far. Once I finish my level I'll probably take out the .DLL file to see if the game still runs fine. Try to figure out which one is the actual fix.

I did dg_VooDoo, but I was still trying to use EQWin for borderless. I found Borderless Gaming and use it now, it just makes your mouse clicks slightly off. Figured I'd toss another fix out there, the .DLL addition to your eqclient.ini I know the issue is frustrating as hell.

Where do I find these lines? I didn't see them in my eqclient.ini

This is what I ended up using, but Shawn is also correct. It isn’t in there, you have to add it in just like the .DLL line.
