<p>Hey thanks for any advice.  I usually play on my desktop which is being repaired sometime soon.</p><p> My Dad's new laptop is ok on the specs but I guess lite on memory which i guess would be Ram probably?  Here are the stats:</p><p>Dell Inspiron 6400 </p><p>BIOS: Phoenix ROM BIOS PLUS Version 1.10 A14          Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU      T2350  @ 1.86GHz (2 CPUs)          Memory: 1022MB RAM          Page File: 641MB used, 1817MB available         Windows Dir: C:WINDOWS         DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)         DX Setup Parameters: Not found         DxDiag Version: 5.03.2600.2180 32bit Unicode</p><p> ---------------Display Devices---------------        Card name: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7300        Manufacturer: NVIDIA        Chip type: GeForce Go 7300        DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC        Device Key: EnumPCIVEN_10DE&DEV_01D7&SUBSYS_20031028&REV_A1        Display Memory: 256.0 MB        Current Mode: 1024 x 768 (32 bit) (60Hz)        Monitor: Plug and Play Monitor</p><p> Ive been only playing on a new alt in Neriak and the wood area.  It wont play long in the city itself often crash in 15 mins or so.  Outside in the open it can last for up to 1-2 hours before locking up.</p><p>Ive leveld a char up to 12 while trying to solve the issue but I dont know too much about finer computer tweaking or this machine itself.  Read many posts and I know SOE doesnt support laptops so Im hoping for player experience whove had the same problem.</p><p>When it gives an error message which isnt always, it said one time that it went into an infinite loop once or twice.</p><p>Mostly it crashes to the desktop saying EQ2 had an unrecoverable error and had to be shut down.  And further said something about the directX couldnt do something I believe, that the system ran out of memory so I'm guessing it has something to do with the RAM?  The video card seems to be ok fo rthe game but only 1 gig of RAM on this machine seems low?</p><p>I did keep a log of the DxDiag file but not sure if thats needed for my problem yet. so Ill keep it short so far.</p><p>Thanks for your time</p><p>Mystpel Mistmoore</p><p>Myzt new lowbie trying to get this 2nd comp working so my Dad can play on his account on this laptop</p><p>Here is the error message this time:</p><p>Everfquest II has detected an unrecoverable error and must shutdown.</p><p><verify>D:liveeq2frameworkcoredevicessrcDirectX9RenderDevi ce.cpp(a997): DirectX Error.  (E_OUTOFMEMORY)</p>
