Im running a INTEL Core I7 - 6700k @ 4.0 GHz and have been for nearly 8 years (coming this fall it would be 8 years on this system setup.). memory is DDR4 - 32GBs - 3000MHz which hasn't changed in nearly 8 years, the graphics card is the same one Ive been using for 4ish years, hard drive is the same, same internet company and speed. Nothing has changed. I can log into Grand Creation Server and serval others just not P99 ones. very odd.

There must be more than one way to cause the same error, so the fix for most of us in this thread won't apply to you. Do you know if there's a tool for p99 users to do a scan of files to verify they have the same file hash as what the servers expect us to have? If not I'd recommend a fresh install to a different folder and patching it with the files from the p99 setup instructions to see if that fixes a file corruption problem.

I've got a Ryzen 7 5800X3D, core ratio is set to 34 and locked, I don't think it's changeable on this CPU or motherboard (Gigabyte B450 Aorus M). I've disabled all the game boost and auto boost properties I could find for my motherboard and 19 times out of 20 that I try to launch P1999 I wind up with the error 1017 pop-up.

Any ideas on how to fix it on this CPU? It seems totally random, sometimes it'll work, but 95% of the time I get the error 1017 and it'll never work until I reboot. If p1999 launches on the first shot, it's fine, but I've never gotten it to work once I see that error.
