<p>I have checked many of the posts over the past couple days and have found many similar problems, but I cannot seem to find the answer to fix my issues. I have recently bought a new tv and decided to upgrade my video card at the same time so that I can play on the big screen. It seems since my upgrade that I can no longer even get into EQ it keeps stopping on the loading screen and freezes. Once I left it overnight to see if it was just a long load but it was still frozen on the loading screen in the morning. When this happens the whole computer freezes and my only fix is to reboot.</p><p>I have heard of the 8800 graphics problems and it sounds like it is stuttering once others are in the game, unfortunately I cannot even get that far.</p><p>My system specs are: </p><p>OS: XP Media Centre</p><p>Ram: 4gb</p><p>Processor: 4600+</p><p>Video: 8600GT (with newest drivers from Dec/07)</p><p>Power Supply: upgraded to 500 watt </p><p>I have deleted the exe files, character files, run full game scan, etc as suggested in other posts. I had also turned off my virus program, and turned off security features of Windows. I have not touched my router, I figured since I have been playing since release without any issues its probably not the issue.</p><p>Any help would be a huge welcome, I am about ready to give up on playing.</p>
