Okay one thing for sure that kept me from crashing. Trust me this works.

Right click on your everquest icon and go under compatibility mode. There is a checkbox for "runs in 640x480 resolution". Click this. It does not mean the game will run in 640x480 but the intro screen will. Without that one checked I cannot even get into the game.

Now change these under your video mode. If EQ starts in windowed mode, or if the character select is in windowed mode do this, center the windowed mode window up on your screen, to where it covers the entire screen. Now Hit ALT-ENTER and you will go full screen before you go into the game. Only then enter the world, not in windowed mode. The reason for this is if you go full screen it sometimes crashes and I would rather crash before my character enters the world.

Make a copy of your eqclient.ini then delete what you have under the video mode section and change it to this. Not sure why your refresh is 59, it needs to match what your video card is running.

[VideoMode]
Width=1920
Height=1200
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=60
WindowedWidth=1920
WindowedHeight=1200
