Connection problems
Initially I was having issues w/ login server.... locked out for significant periods. That seems to have eased up [good], only to be replaced with persistent "this zone is not ready to receive visitors yet" when attempting to zone into normal areas (eg. great divide, Kael) [very bad]. Basically, you can't port/zone into an area that doesn't already have a PC already in it.
Worse still, toons logged off in 'locked' areas [eg. Velks] have trouble logging back on [eventually I was able to log my mage in Velks, but he cant zone into GD]. PoK seems ok (at least my toon can gate back there, but there are number of afk PCs there already so who knows....). Portal stones in PoK likewise seem locked out.
This started a couple days ago. At first, you would be denied access, then zone when you tried a second time. It's progressively required more and more attempts to zone, until today -now it seems completely locked. I've spoken to other PC on my server [Irreverent] and they are trapped as well.
Any clues? The game/server has otherwise been stable since I`ve started playing a few weeks ago (the only issue being the login server itself).

Well, no luck. I've reinstalled on a new hard drive, tried everything possible and then some. Something is just happening with this particular rig and it makes no sense. Nothing changed, it just stopped working.
I have no idea what else to do, rebuilding the system as if it were brand new didn't do anything, on XP or Vista.

Did you ever try different video cards?
And, did you ever try any of the dual core CPU fixes linked from the FAQ in my sig? If that PC runs a dual core, then you definitely have things to set to make it work properly with EQ.

Yep, tried HD3870, 8800GS, 8800GTS 320, and 9800GX2.
Tried the run-first program and everything as well, it doesn't make sense that I've run EQ/Emu on dual core for 4 years and had no problems until randomly one day on one rig :(
Literally rebuilt the rig and installed a new OS on a new drive and a new install of EQ and it STILL does it, makes no sense whatsoever.
I'll try a Pentium 4 631 (single core) and see if that helps, but last I used that CPU was going for 7Ghz under dry ice so it probably had 1.9-2.05vcore through it...we'll see if its alive :lol:

Well...bumped up my overclock on the E8600 and stress tested all night...randomly before class I say "oh what the hell" and give it a shot. Emulator opens up and runs just fine
Randomly stopped working, randomly started working... I don't have a clue.
But I'm back
