Need help with a 1017 error. "Can not login to the everquest server. You may need to rerun the update patch..."
Here's the skinny: I've messed around with this for well over a week, read all the forums, tried all the fixes --- nothing doing. I've installed the game on a friends PC from the same disc, he booted up and ran the game fine. I tried connecting at both his house where he connected just fine as well as my own house and I can not connect. I can get to the server login screen but soon as I click play on a server I get booted to the account login screen. I borrowed a computer from another friend who builds rigs, just so I could play, and his PC went kaput after a week so I'm back to square one.
Stats on my PC: Windows 7, AMD FX-4170 Quad-Core 4.2Ghz, 16gig ram. Titanium from disc install.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled about a dozen times, I've run as administrator, I've run the eqemu patcher, I've run Wineq2, I've run in compatability mode, I've alt tabbed and set affinity before logging in. I've updated all my drivers. No luck...
I can view the emu servers just fine and in fact have logged into them via other machines using same install methods and log file changes... my PC refuses to run the game.
Here's an excerpt from my dbg log:
2013-03-14 08:44:12 Networking: using port [49947].
2013-03-14 08:44:12 Networking: Connection Established [1]

2013-03-14 08:44:14 *** WorldAuthenticate. Checkpoint 3.

I need my EQ fix! I would be eternally grateful to anyone that has a solution!
