players can't get past char selection screen.

[blackjack1]

I can get in fine on my server. but I don't see anyone getting past the char selection screen.

also when i try to log in another character on seperate instance of EQ the logged in char gets booted. this is especially when they are in the same zone. after one booting the other for a while generally then both and log in fine eventually. I got 8 all logged in at once on same account after that.

I have the right ports open on router, the DB is PEQ seems to be installed fine, I have 5 zones runnning. PC is Windows XP, dual core Conroe, 2 gig of ram. no special software running like windows firewall is off.
