Running Vista 32bit. Followed the instructions to the T. First of all it tells me I only have 2gig of memory and I can't select more than 2 Luclin models (no issue). I can log in fine and select and join one of the two(?!) Al'Kabor servers. It loads for 3s and hits me with a Windows memory error even though I can hear the music playing during the loading screen process.

Has anyone run into this problem and fixed it?

Running on 16-bit color, turned off all fancy options including sound, tried different resolutions, created a brand new account. Nothing.

tried wineg2? (from lavishsoft, free to sign up) i have to run that in order to even get eq to work properly and not warp all over the place in super speedy mode. I had no issue on XP, but wouldn't work when i went to windows 7 64bit until i used wineq2

it handles window mode and dual core afinity for you. I run eq in windowed mode so i can have my browser beside it (for maps, ah tracker,quest info) or running movies while i grind. (wish i had a second monitor for all this crap but no room on my desk) so not sure if that makes a difference

p.s. forgot i was in the mac thread... no clue if Wineq2 works for the mac server or not. this is what i had to do for p99 to work
