Default dual boxing question
I have a quick question about when I dual box eq. I pull up my first eq and everything runs perfectly. I start up my second eq and the first box goes completely black, but is still connect and I can type, chat, ect. I haven't ever run across this before. I did some research but really no answer to this particular question. If anyone has ever ran into this and solved it please let me know. Thanks

not running full screen are you?
Something like this you should post the specs of your system for people to trouble shoot

I recently got a new computer, and this happened to me whenever I tried to load up my boxes, in windowed mode. I got WinEQ and it fixed it, haven't tried without it since.

This can also happen if you're running EQ as Administrator. The popup freezes windows in the background and causes them to go black.
