Error, crash at start

[shorttin]

anyone know why i get access denied when trying to set affinity to eqgame.exe? my pc only has one user account and it is the admin...

Make sure you are trying to set the affinity BEFORE you actually log into EQ. You have to do it right after EQ opens or the process gets locked. I have heard some people still having problems even then when running Vista though.

There was no indication or message that any optional update for my particular video adapter was available (and I didn't think of that). After I swapped out my RAM and re-installed my OS etc., I was JUST about to give up believing that the problem was that Dell didn't do a good job with the video driver, a message came up that there was an update for my "NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT". After installing the update, everything works fine and I can play eq. I hope this info. is usefull to someone.

On a seperate note, thanks everyone for replying. May sound dumb, but it's comforting to know that at least I wasn't alone with my problem.

What was the name of this file? I am having the same problems with my 1720~
