Reformat now getting application error

[darkreap]

I am getting an error when i reformatted my computer saying "The instruction at 0x029a45b4 referenced memory at 0x0360f0bc. The memory could not be read.

Click on OK to terminate the program"

Anyone know whats going on?

this is during loading before character select but after server select. Going to try to reinstall to a different directory and see if that helps.

From the FAQ thread (http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94928):

1. Help! When I try to run eq, at some point before entering the game, I get an error that looks something like this:
The instruction at 0x029110ce referenced memory at 0xfffffffc. The memory could not be read

This solution to this is actually very simple. Go to your EQ folder. Find the file eqclient.ini and open it in a text editor (i use notepad, its the simplest to use)

hit ctrl+f, type windowedwidth, you should see something like this:

WindowedWidth=1280
WindowedHeight=768
Width=1280
Height=768
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WidthWindowed=1280
HeightWindowed=768


change it to this:

WindowedWidth=800
WindowedHeight=600
Width=800
Height=600
FullscreenBitsPerPixel=32
FullscreenRefreshRate=0
WidthWindowed=800
HeightWindowed=600

I'm using 800 x 600 here, but you may need to fiddle with that a bit. If 800 x 600 isnt working, try using your monitors native resolution instead. Eventually, you will get a combination that works, just keep trying.
