Try the standard recommendations of installing dgvoodoo and running the game in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatability.

Here is THE_FIX!

Thank you dgVoodoo!!


http://dege.freeweb.hu/

don't worry about the dangerous warning

its a legit site

- http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2.html

then

- http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2_64.zip

zip password is "shitgoogle"

look in the zip (notice directx 8 and directx 9) and extract the following files to your to your EQ base directory

- dgVoodoo2_64\MS\x86\D3D8.dll
- dgVoodoo2_64\MS\x86\D3D9.dll
- dgVoodoo2_64\MS\x86\D3Dlmm.dll
- dgVoodoo2_64\MS\x86\DDraw.dll

This fix will prevent those crashes where it says: "ResetDeviceFailed()" [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
You can even lock (CTRL+ALT+DEL) your computer and un-lock with zero crashes!!


I would say don't use WinEQ with dgVoodoo because you will get crashes at the login screen sometimes ...unless you play on blue and green simultaneously and simply need WinEQ
