How goes with Vista? You may get a prompt when running Everquest II the first time mentioning a pack. Some custom UIs don't show the? All it does is link to this site advising to install a patch addressing Virtual address space usage in Windows game development The start menu annoys me and I'm constantly having to clean it up so I don't have to scroll. You may want to look at this toy to download and run.
It's basically a smart "Run Here is one more crazy thing for you to try. I run Ultimate, and my wife runs Home Pre. One day I kept getting the download cancelled as well. Here is what I did. Start the launchpad, at the upper left choose European, download the patch, shut off the launchpad. Restart the launchpad and choose English-America, and go from there. Not sure why it worked, or how it worked, I just know that the one time I had that problem, that fixed it.
Good luck. Originally Posted by Semideus. The start menu annoys me and I'm constantly having to clean it up so I don't have to scroll.

Doing some research, I found in the Microsoft technical support forums a file they had posted called TakeOwnership.
I don't have the url handy atm. There are soo many different tech forums and newqs groups at Microsoft , but I will look dor it to post it. What it does is adds the ability to be able to right click on any file folder and claim either administrative rights or ownership of every file within that folder by adding the key required to the registry. You can also right click to restore the ownership changes.
It sure saved me some headaches of having to individually right click certain files to take ownership to get a program to work as I needed it to. I'm sure by now there are plenty of other small programs out there that do the same thing, I would be very hesitant in using anything that changes your registry or adds keys with the exception of it coming from Microsoft.
Hm, my game crashes after i click play in char select. EQ patches have even resolved some of these old issues. In fact last LU 49 even adds dual core support.
The issue you described is likely a corruption in the launchpad. I've had this a few times in the past eg even before Vista. Unfortunately, the only permanent fix was reinstalling EQ2 after uninstall,defrag and manual registry cleanup. I always found that launching the EverQuest2. The answer I gave to Eowaubeth had to do Windows Vista default setup for permissions which can cause a lot of problems for programs not made to work with it so that why turning off UAC User Accout Control in Windows Vista helps in those situations.
I still leave it off as it more intrusive than helpful for me. If you run EQ2 now in vista it will detect if it has the needed permission. If it dose not it warns you and you are given a chance to rerun it with the correct permission or continue on at your own risk.
It does this if the UAC is turned on or off I think. Thread Tools. All times are GMT The time now is PM. Our Network. Search Downloads. User Name. Remember Me? View First Unread. Use the little gear again and check your Game Configuration. Make sure it's using the correct video card in case you've got both embedded graphics and a secondary GPU. While in Game Configuration most options are "don't care" on a modern video card except for Social Animations and Dynamic Lighting.
Unless you have a really strong video card probably turn those off. Stay in settings and make sure Windows 10 is completely up-to-date with all patches. Visit the manufacturer of your video card web site and find the newest WHQL certified video driver.
Download and install it. Note the newest WHQL driver will probably NOT be the newest driver available, but it will be the one with the most testing done to ensure compatibility with Windows EQ is really old, it never needs the absolute newest driver because driver coders could care less about EQ compatibility.
Reboot your system! When was the last time you checked your cable or DSL connection wires, reseated them, and rebooted your modem and router? Did I say Reboot your system? Just do it.
Try EQ again. If it still doesn't work has anything changed? Metanis , Sep 23, Corwyhn Lionheart likes this. I have my anti-virus set to 'ask if program is allowed'. So when it does get upset, it pops up a message asking me if the program is okay and I click Yes or Allow. Geroblue , Sep 24, I've recently had this problem and came across this thread which fixed the issue temporarily.
Will report back if anyone cares to know how I get on, as the OP didn't say if it worked. Burningeordie , Mar 21, I have the same problem. Things started well when I installed EQ, started up, logged in to Mangler, created a toon and while I was adjusting the UI all in game buttons stopped responding. I had to exit with the Task Manager.
After that I could not even get past the launcher. Select Play and watch a black window open and quickly close and then nothing. Back to the desktop and launcher. I tried everything suggested in this thread and a few others suggested by support. Interestingly when attempting to install DirectX 9. Oddly enough, one failure presented a dialog box with the following message. One or more of the egg files match in size and date but the CRC is off. Anyone know of any way to stop EQ from crashing every time something on the computer makes the game flip to desktop.
If any notation pops in windows 10, then EQ crashes. Anyone know of this bug, and would like to share how you stop going out of Fullscreen mode. Thanks Edit: Thanks AcidT for the fix!!
Solution: Edit the file "Eqclient. Check that your GPU isn't running at EQ does not pop out anymore for Win 10 things. Bloody Discord app keeps doing it. Last edited by Kurnn ; 24 Aug, am. The author of this topic has marked a post as the answer to their question.
Click here to jump to that post. Originally posted by AcidT :. Showing 1 - 8 of 8 comments. I get the bug were if i log out the game freezes, even if the game is closed it's still frozen on my screen. Eq2 is jsut as bad, I log out and it still continues to run in the background.
