Default eqgfx_dx8.dll...'Tis infamous

Ok, weird problem: I play EQ (any version, emulator or regular) on the lowest possible screen size setting. If I make an attempt to play at 800x600 or higher, when I click to go to the loading screen I get "An error has occured in 'Eqgfx_dx8.dll'"...this has always happened. Recently, however, it started giving me that error when I try to play on the lowest possible setting! Only occasionally, sometimes it works just fine, sometimes I get the error. I didn't do something new or anything different. In fact, I've been playing on the regular servers instead recently, not the emulator. I tried changing around my computer's settings to 16 bit and 32 bit, and back again, I've restarted my computer many times (out of habit...when something goes wrong, REBOOT!), and deleted and redownloaded my Eqgfx_dx8.dll file.

I doubt anyone else has this problem, being that I have come to the conclusion that I am the only person on Earth with a Savage IX video card. (and I'm guessing that itself is my problem...besides, laptops and EverQuest don't mix very well)
But help is always much appreciated! Thank you very much.
