Yeah read up on why Rogean recommends it to people having such issues. I had to start using it back in the early-early PEQ days (alpha period), recommended to me by the lead dev there to resolve the crash issues. And currently with my new system I need to use it to get onto the server or it crashes. I've seen many threads on the subject in the support forum, hard to miss.

So yeah, if you see new people starting threads on the matter, having tried everything, recommend WinEQ 2.0, not troll them threatening bans :/

You're an idiot. 90% of the server uses wineq. Not only does it allow you to google shit while playing EQ but it fixes many hardware issues that were not around back in the day (like multi core cpu issues)

I don't see the correlation. I think if it is working for you then it is great but you can run EQ Titanium in windowed mode and lock it down to one processor by just putting the affinity 0 in the shortcut.
I run windowed mode exclusively with the wiki open in my second monitor without winEQ.
This is all running on a brand new custom build modern computer running 64bit win7.

As I said though, if you are having issues and winEQ fixes things for you then I applaud you using it to fix those issues. I just don't understand what issues it is fixing for you.

Crashing, as numerous people have stated in this thread.
