I just purchased an Alienware Aurora R10 with a Ryzen 7 5800x 3.7 ghz processor, RTX 3080 video card, 16 gb of dddr4 3200 mhz, and a 1tb NVMIE SDD. The game is crashing randomly and I am repeatedly getting an error stating "Windows- Application Error" with the error stating that the memory could not be read. Does anyone know of a fix for this problem? I tested my memory and there were no errors and so far P99 is the only application where this is happening.

I'm having the same issue on my new HP i5 11th gen. I've tried running EQ through Lavishsoft and instead of the memory error it just crashes to the desktop.

If you have integrated graphics try using that instead of the RTX 3080. I have to use integrated graphics or my games screen will randomly freeze and alt enter ends up crashing it completely.

My laptop only has the integrated graphics card (Intel Iris Xe Graphics) with the latest drivers.

I guess make sure resolution is correct, run as admin, run in different compatibility modes and see if one is better than the other, move Everquest out of program files and into a folder straight on the harddrive. Those are the only tricks I know of.

I have it running from c: Everquest that I created.

What is the "correct resolution"?

Thanks

And if it's 800x600, what do you set your computer display at?

Thank you for taking the time to post this.

For those having issues running EQ after upgrading your laptop that's using an Intel Iris graphics card, this worked for me.

Again, thanks Mcoy!
