EQ crashing upon startup
When I double click on the modified eqgame to run EQ, i get a error EQgame has encountered a problem and has to close.
Then it exits before it even loads up. I did all the spell files and changes needed. Any known way to fix this? | ||

Try right clicking the icon, going to properties. Go to the compatibility tab then check 640x480 mode.

Happened to my girlfriend (her laptop is 1440x900 and XP) and a friend (unsure of his laptop's resolution but it's Vista), this fix worked for both.
Change your resolution in Windows to 1280x800 (right-click the desktop, select properties and click the last tab, appearance i think, and the resolution slider is there) and the game should launch. Then close it and change your resolution back and the next time you launch EQ it will be in a 1280x800 window. | ||

It would help if we knew your OS.
My bet it's Vista | ||

Had this exact same issue, and my steps to resolve were similar to what km2783 posted.
1. Change your desktop resolution to anything 4:3, [such as 1600x1200, 1024x768, etc.]. 2. Launch EQ [it should launch now]. 3. Enter the game, open the options window, go to the display tab, make sure to uncheck "switch to fullscreen mode" [you want to be in windowed mode] and select a display resolution to your liking. 4. Camp 5. Change your desktop resolution back to whatever you like. 6. Launch EQ [it should start normally in windowed mode now from your native desktop resolution]. My settings were: Desktop native: 1920x1200 Desktop temporarily altered: 1600x1200 [4:3] EQ window setting: 1680x1024 Specs: WinXP Pro Geforce 7950GTX 512mb | ||
