I am having a problem that a few other users seem to be having, as soon as I select the default profile I get a microsoft error message report that eqgame.exe has crashed... I can not find the sysinfo.txt file in my Wineq2 folder so I cannot post that here, win eq was working fine last week. Some family was in town for a week, so I really didn't play eq, they left yesterday I tried to fire up evercrack and it wouldn't work.. Had wineq1.38 but downloaded 2.08 thinking it would help. Does eq have to successfully fire off one time to start the sysinfo.txt file or why don't I have it.

Forgot to mention that both accounts work fine if running normal everquest.

Is this with Windows XP? Do you have Service Pack 2? Have you scanned for viruses? Have you scanned for spyware? 99.99% of problems of this type are solved by those 3 things.

Something installed (or not installed) on your system is interfering such that WinEQ 2 cant do its job. It is more susceptible to having problems when there is spyware, viruses, etc than normal programs because of the way it has to interact with other software.

I have windows xp I have installed sp2 I have run spyware. I have not recently run a virus scan. I would be happy to post the sysinfo, that would answer these questions but I cannot find it in the directory where I installed wineq. Is this file not created until wineq runs successfully for the first time? I will run a virus scan and try again, but I have recently formatted, and have not spent much time on the computer since that time. Last week everything was fine, yesterday it just didn't work when I tried to run it. How can I get the sysinfo file to be created? I will post it if I find it

SysInfo.txt is created while the game is loading, so if eqgame.exe crashes before that, then you simply wont see it.

If you happen to have a fake d3d9.dll in your EQ directory (some autofire thing people used to use, for example), make sure to remove that too.

Thank you for your help, it was indeed a virus.
