Default every time I camp out i get a crash now

I got a new PC and everytime I camp from a character, at 0 seconds I get a crash.

Then to log into another character or account I have to wait until the IP block is up.. or my LD self has dissipated.. whatever you want to call it.

Is there any idea what can cause these crash on camp outs? any advice for trouble shooting my system to see what the problem is?

I used to have this problem. Only thing I ever got to fix all my p99 issues was clean reinstall windows.

I moved my Sony directory to my c:/ drive root and it seems to have had an effect for the better (moving it out of program files 86x)

Well... moving it to root c:/ did not solve my problem.. I did however get this error this time.

I should preface this by saying, this is already a fresh window install.

Windows 8 and up has to being in the program's folder.

I've yet to figure out the reason behind the crashing. I think it might be linked to full screen mode. Cause it only happens on my Windows 8 machine that is in full screen mode. I think switching between resolutions freaks it out to the point where it doesn't know what to do but crash. I know so technical right lol.

I have it install on 7 8 and 10.

I am running win 10.

I had the sony folder in the programfiles86x folder, but that was crashing.. so i moved it out and it seemed to help last night.. but then i got a crash after like 6 or 7 login logouts...

this morning, i got a crash every time after a restart. but then it started to stop, last 3 have been successful.. but no change in my behavior [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So its reporducable, but not by 100%

I have not tried moving to the regular program files folder.. or moving the EVERQUEST folder (which resides inside the sony one) to the root c:/ yet... I Might try that next.

not sure if we have to have this sony folder?

You don't but you do need to keep it in the x86 folder or it will eventually freak out. The game tries to look for something that's not there which I think overloads the client and causes a memory leak.

The crashing has been a problem for some time, I think they just don't have a fix for this yet and there are work a rounds to minimalize it so it's not priority.

Yikes this is so not true, many of us have been running outside the "protected directories" for years and years.

With Windows 8 and up. Not saying it's going to crash everytime but it's like a snow ball rolling down a hill. Once it gets going to won't stop til you have to do something drastic like reinstall.
