Tooltips have stopped working
 

So normally when I inspect someone or loot a kill I can hover over an object with my mouse and a tooltip pops up telling me what said item is. After last night this has ceased to be. Oddly enough when I tell others about this they tell me its working fine for them.

Truthfully it isn't a huge, huge deal but it is rather annoying especially when I'm doing quests or trying to do something quickly. Any ideas?

Happened to me too. Also annoying when you can't find out how long a buff timer is.

yeah this is the big one or really when a mob casts on you. I mean i guess its more exciting not knowing when this dot is going to drop and I'm 20% but I'd really rather it work properly again.

Let me know if you find a fix for this.

Well it hasn't magically corrected itself sadly. I ask people about it in game and they don't seem to be experiencing the same issue.

I'm having what sounds like the same issue. Started just the other day, hasn't fixed itself yet.

Have you rebooted recently?

I believe this is an issue with Windows rather than EverQuest. If you leave your PC on for a long period of time the system no longer will run the popups (if I remember correctly its something to do with 32 bit number in seconds or some such). Its an old bug that still pops up now and again.

Gonna try this. My comp has been on a long ass time if I'm not mistaken.

Maybe cause I use a 64bit OS, but 23 days hasn't broke it yet.

Happened to me 2x.. reboot.. fixed.
