My friend has a AMD 64x2, with windows 7, 8 gigs of ram, 1 gig video card. Here is the issue with his system, and we can't figure it out. He can play one toon, flawless, two flawless...third box...even with eq on all MIN settings. HUGE lag. My computer is almost 8 years old and I can 5 box. I have followed every single page of this thread and the other thread about the same thing.. Tried everything, from core optimizing, compatibility modes, power options, affinities, even reinstalls.. You name it. No idea why it's lagging so bad upon the entrance of a third box. He should be able to do MUCH more on this system. Not sure what else to do. It's very frustrating.

Thanks for any help!

Does the pagefile have enough room on the drive it is located to grow?

Has anyone figured out how to launch (SoD client) with /affinity X using shortcuts in Windows 7 (x64) ?

Or, any way?

I have a 4-core 8-thread cpu (i7 950) if I launch one copy of Sod it will set affinity to cpu 0. If I launch a 2nd copy it will set affinity of that client to cpu 1 - problem here is that is the same cpu (hyperthreading).

If I launch a 3rd copy it will use.... cpu 0 again. It's like it doesn't understand anything beyond 2-core 2-thread (non-HT) cpus.

I have to manually set the affinity with taskman, which is a pain with boxing 4+ clients..

Wanted to take the time to thank you. Completely fixed my problem. had characters models that didnt move or my character would move slow while the rest of the critters moved faster than me. Now i can enjoy myself.

It was really getting on my nerves chasing something down that ran faster than me.


Happy hunting and thank you again.

I made the EQ shortcut use compatibility mode for WinXP SP3, and just under that I checked the "Disable desktop composition" checkbox as well as "Run this program as an administrator". Works flawlessly.
Folks trying to use this on Win 7 who have it lock up as soon as you try to login, this worked for me. At least partially. I can get into the EZ server now, project 1999 (the one I would like to play) still locks up. I'm wondering if that has something to do with me running the Steam Underfoot version rather than the CD versions.

Hi, i just wanted to mentioned that if it loads to black its because aero is enabled. If you check any of the compatbility "disable" modes then it will disable aero. You can just run a basic theme and you dont have to run compatibility.

Im having issues with this. Ive read to set the affinity which ive done (Via the /affinity) and when i try to log in i get

"Error 1017: Cannot login to the EverQuest server. You may need to re-run the Update Patch. Repeatedly seeing this message indicates a loss of connectivity to the Patch Server. This is usually temporary"

Been getting that error for almost 3 hours now just after selecting to go to char select on the server. When it happends it boots me back to account login. Any help with this? Im runnin a 8 core CPU btw its why i set affinity.

Unless it's a problem with every server you should probably look for help on the p99 forums. They would be more familiar with the exact client requirements needed to play there.

Well, if you set the client up to play on P99 you've generally broken it for other servers. If you're using a fresh client and can't connect to something like PEQ or Stormhaven then you may be having issues with a router/firewall.
