For newer graphics cards either of the following can be helpful:

My 1080 isn't picked up without dgvoodoo2. I haven't had a need to try wined3d4win.

I tried the : https://sourceforge.net/projects/wined3d4win fix for this and it seemed to work for a couple days, but just today I had two crashes ( one at disco like a lot of people have been saying and another going down into the water from firepots spires). note that the firepots spire crash has happened 3 times now at various times. These crashes are like others are describing where the screen freezes or goes black but you can still hear sound and my RL friends on discord said I was doing actions when I asked them.

Either way, my question is whether any body has a clear explanation of how to actually install or whatever for this link from above? http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2.html I've looked at it a couple times but not really clear what I'm supposed to do with it. Are there instructions I'm missing on the page? Has anybody installed it for P99 and can explain how it's supposed to be done or if it has fixed their problem?

Read the html when you extract the zip. Basically, you copy the DLLs to your EQ folder and that's it. All I did was extract it to my EQ folder and edit the conf file so it doesn't include the watermark.
