Try it the other way around. Try de-selecting core 1 instead of 0.

Ya, you want to run on core 0 not 1.

Yeah, my mistake. It's been so long since I've done it manually that I couldn't remember. I just made a batch file to run EQ instead:

Code:
start /affinity 1 eqgame.exe patchme
exit
Create a text file. Place the above code into it. Go to File, then "Save As..." and call it "EQ.bat". Place it in your EQ folder. Create a shortcut to it on your desktop. This is now your EQ shortcut for when you only run one account. Label it accordingly (mine is ?"EQ - One Account"). This should run the game normally.

If you run with more than one account at a time on the same machine (two seems to do the trick for me), then you can use your normal shortcut, as it should overload your dual-core enough to balance the load. What's happening now is that you're running the game far faster than intended, which is why you seem to be moving at warp speed. These methods should help slow you down to normal. Sorry for the mix-up on which core to disable at first, and thanks to Trevius for the help

into the file , go to file save as , and name it EQ.bat , make a shortcut of that and put it on your desktop.. The icon should look like a window with a wheel in it

Right. If you really want, you can go into the properties for the shortcut and change the icon to the EQ one.

Just like to play on EQEmu you had to make a shortcut to your eqgame.exe file, we're making another shortcut, but to eq.bat instead.
