Slow moving Toon

Sometimes my toon runs fast and other times he runs extremely slow. Anyone else have this problem?

Dual Core issue. Should probably get it fixed, otherwise you definitely will get banned for hacking. There are a couple different how-to threads in this forum.

Hit ctrl+alt+delete, right click on EQgame.exe, hit "set affinity" and check CPU 0.

I am not running a dual core processor, on an old labtop, dell inspiron 6000. Everything runs fine besides my actual toons running speed, frustratingly slow(90% of the time)

As long as we aren't having any issues, running multiple cores otherwise isn't an issue is it?

I have a triple core phenom and have zero performance issues.

I had the problem you describe. Binding eqgame.exe to one core didn't fix that issue, but disabling Cool'n'Quiet in my BIOS fixed it.

I think your Dell has an Intel chip. Make sure the chipset drivers/software is installed correctly, and if that doesn't fix it try disabling CPU throttling. Intel calls this SpeedStep instead of AMD's Cool'n'Quiet.

Cool n Quiet was my issue as well, it seemed like I was running in quick sand. disabled it and now it is all normal speed in game. Thanks Zallarenya!
