There are definitely issues with dual cores. Try pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL and select the processes tab. Then, start eq and you will see the new process start in the list. Right click that processes and select "set affinity". This will set EQ to run on 1 processor instead of both. Although I think that particular issue only shows up once you actually get in game.
From the sounds of these posts, this error is starting before you even get to the login window.
If you are having problems getting that far, you might want to verify you are running good video card drivers and have directX 9 installed.
I suspect the issue is most likely caused by a resolution problem. Check your eqclient.ini and try setting windowed mode or changing the resolutions. I am sure you can find example configs on the EQLive site or from google, if you can't figure out how to change it on your own.
