Multi/Dual/Quad-Core Issues

[pigeons]

I would just like to see I have resolved my issue thanks to a very helpful guild mate. I believe someone may have mentioned this earlier in the thread, but I disabled speedstep in my bios. That has resolved my issue 100%. No need for anything else. Hope this helps everyone else out there!

Did you try this yet

I had a similar issue on a 2.2 ghz dual core (intel). What i did is went to power settings and set min and max cpu to 50% so it would not throttle up and down.

THEN start EQ. Worked ALOT better that way.p

Yes thats basically the same fix (for people like me who don't have the option in the BIOS [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.])

I attempted every combination of every fix as listed throughout the entirety of this thread. In the end, turning off SpeedStep through the BIOS at startup fixed the issue I was having (extremely slow character movement) and renders the game 100% playable. I would highly recommend this as a starting point for anyone using Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate as it was the only thing that worked for me.

OK. What am I doing wrong here.
I can get into the game using my modified eq shortcut with the target:

"C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme

I have a quad core so I can see some mob path stuttering, therefore I decided to give Wineq 2.15 Lite a try.

I went to preferences and made sure that the correct path was:

"C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest

I ran the profile and got "eqgame.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

I need some assistance here. Running XP 32bit.

This happened to me when I had enabled compatibility mode for eqgame.exe. Try turning it off.

I'm So glad there's a fix for my problem. I just wish I could understand what I'm supposed to do to fix it. Could someone help me, please?

Thanks in advance for any help at all.

I'm at a loss at what to do, I can play for 5 min or 20 min before I get amazing lag, I installed Win 7 last night in hopes that it would help with a clean install. And still I get this lag that will last for about 5min.

I've tried the cmd affinity = no luck

Wineq2.0 = no change
compatibility mode win xp = no luck
AMD driver cpu driver = no luck

I'm really at a loss, I dont think I'll be able to contunie playing since I dont want to group with people and do nothing for those 5min, and soloing is a struggle when I do get lag.

Any other suggestions please!!!!
