Whenever I have my client open and then open a browser for twitch.tv in a browser it either freezes or crashes my EQ client!

This is probably not a good thing if you want to keep promoting EQ p99 through twitch.tv

All sorts of people stream and dont crash (myself included), i watch twitch all the time while playing and it doesnt crash, maybe your CPU problems have nothing to do with how the server advertises?

Since you just wanted to be a saltcube and not include pertinent information:
Are you trying to stream? or when EQ client is open and you try to just watch any twitch stream your client crashes? Some peoples computers shit the bricks when graphics (especially captured broadcasting) have conflicting resolutions. I'd make sure your Twitch.tv isnt trying to stream from source and just stick with high.

I lost 95% of my problems with EQ/P99/Graphics stuff when I got rid of my relic and got a new computer, is your CPU old? Graphics card drivers updated?

Try putting EQ in windows mode before tabbing to load OBS

I have a 3.6 6 core ghz comp with dual GeForce 980x graphics cards and 32gb ram. Ssd hard drive. Win 10 OS.

I am not trying to stream. I just open a Web browser on my second monitor to the twitch home page and it crashes my client. The same thing happens when I try to open some other programs as well when I have EQ running.

This doesn't only happen with my computer as many of my guildies have the same problem.

Also, I am running in windowed mode.

Have you tried running the client with WinEQ?
