Need help

[Heartwork]

I am having a similar issue since updating from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.

The client crashes with the above error after selecting any emu server and logging onto it.

I have tried:
- Running as admin
- Running in every compatibility mode option
- Reinstalling (uninstalling completely, reinstalling EQ titanium, deleting the necessary files and installing the P99 files)
- WinEQ2 with EQPlayNice

Can you restore to a date before 8.1 and try?

[gotrocks]

I'm going to do something I don't usually do and assume you guys getting this error have already messed with the resolution settings, and tried ALL combinations of desktop and in game resolution yet still getting this error.

My biggest question is are you guys running PC's/laptops that have an onboard graphics chip as well as a dedicated graphics card?

[Heartwork]

My mobo doesn't have an onboard gpu, no.

[gotrocks]

What is the dedicated graphics card?

[Bill Tetley]

I upgraded to 8.1 last evening after running EQ on my Win8 box for months and now I get that same exact error at the same exact time heartwork posted above.

As far as the graphics question goes... I am running dual GTX670s in SLI. EQ runs windowed on one monitor while I do everything else on the second monitor.

Going to be restoring back to just plain old 8 in the meantime... damn shame.

I'm getting a similar error with different numbers after the downtime today. Same Win7 machine that was working last night. Running in XP compatability mode not helping yet.

To utmost:

Follow gotrocks' FAQ instructions for that error in this thread:

Hmm just started seeing a similar error since this recent downtime. playing with the resolution settings doesn't seem to do anything.
