Hi gang, Any ideas would be appreciated.
I have a high end system on wideband. Beginning about a month or so ago I started having an issue with going LD when I zone. It happens about once a night - maybe once out of 10 zones or so if not more zoning. Symptoms: I hit the zone and I see the "entering xxxxx" message but I never switch to the EQ splash screen. It stays at my (frozen) location with the entering message then eventually takes me to the server select screen. I NEVER LD otherwise. I have done the advanced file check and even deleted and reloaded the usual -- eqmain, the 8 and 9 dll files, etc.
Any help at all?

I had the same problem until I updated my video card drivers.

It always seemed to be random and only during zoning.

All I can add is that SOE reqd you update your video drivers when DoD came out. Wasn't that about the same time frame?

I'd also defrag the EQ drive, if you haven't already.

can also goto options, and turn off "loading art" option

not sure of the exact name, but it something like that. it will turn it to the way it was before they added that loading art..the progress indictor thing.

i had the same problem, i turned off that option and all was good
