winlauncher problem
 

Hello all love eq emu anyways since i got a new comp it had AMD dual core processor.

and i cant play eq emu unless its buggy but i got WINlauncher XP progwram to fix this . well i cant use the shortcut with the correct path in it. and i have to use the eqgame.exe for it.. how do i change the path for the eqgame.exe so i can use winlaunch to play? thanks i searched for this topic nothing came up for my issue with the core fix problem

I dont know about the Winlauncher thing, but you could try solution number two at this link. This should fix your problem.

Also, if it dont, try loading Eq and then going to your Task Manager, Click on Process Tab and then right click on your Everquest process and then go to Set affinitly and make sure only one CPU is selected, not both of them.

I use Intel so I have not had a dual core issue like this.

Thanks alot bro it fixed it =)

now time to find a good pvp server and im set

ok ran into another probelm.

the fix works but after being on the game for awhile the dual core starts to kick in and it gets all crazy again. the runfirst prog doesnt work right with emulator.

soo when i try the task manager then under processes i try to set affinty and it says "access denied"?
anyone know if some of my settings are interfering.

p.s. i gotta restart my whole comp just to make dual core fix work again and it only lasts an hour or so

there is several fixes for this on the EQ forums, there is several programs you can DL (from SOE and your manufacturer)

Also, if you right click the EQ icon, select run as, then admin (insert user / pass), this will set the prioraty of EQ on one processor.

Several post on this, here and everywhere else. I dont have the issue, but if I did, I could fix it in about 2 min, just from using my good friend google.

Things like, Everquest Dual Core Fix should do the trick. Or Everquest AMD Fix, or Everquest Messed up Graphics Fix.

Yes ive done all of the fixes you say one fixes it but for a short time the set affiny thing it says my acct has admin access but i still be denied, and i seearch all over google most these progs to use are impossible with the way eq emu is swet up cause we have to use the icon. im still trying but i think im jsut stuck with this one fix even though it doesnt remove it permenantly

Did you do these steps

As far as my knowledge goes, this is the offical fix issued by both AMD and Microsoft, for any and all X2 issues.

yes thats the one thats working, i might just install both those again and hopefully it will permenatly fix it for long playing time on eq. but thanks for helping me with this annoying problem

100% of all problems are annoying. Other than that, hope things go good for you.

Hmm, I think that might go into my sig.

Ok i found my problem!!! Success, thanks to the help of a person on PEQ server. now if none of these fixes work for anyone download this optimize!

Fixed my problems for good. Or search "amd dual optimizer" and the first one in the search.

now some poor soul doesn't have to go through all the trouble i did and will hopefully find it here =D.
