Ok, I think I have solved the crashing problem.
My PC kept crashing....I mean, really crashing....as in turning OFF....whenever I played EQ.
Soooo.
After many skull-sessions with the guy who built my PC, we started to look at the Surge Protector that I was using. It seems that Surge Protectors eventually stop being as effective as they once were. When I replaced the old Surge Protector with band-spankin new one, my box ran without a problem. During a several hour exp grind last night, I did NOT suffer a crash. While I did go Link Dead a few times, that was the extent of my suffering. I was able to group in Dreadlands from 41st to 42nd. My goal is to exp grind my Druid to either 44th or 49th for the best possible Power Leveling spells:
Damage Shield, Regenerations, Buffs, etc. This will enable me to PL my baby Rogue, Nixil (currently 19th and parked in Unrest, bless his evil little soul).
For any of you out there, replace your Surge Protectors as needed. It might just make a world of difference.
