Under Win7 64 bit on one of my PCs the client is crashing a couple of times a week. It may crash twice in one day, then not crash for several days. Sometimes it is the EQ client crashing, other times they are blue screen crashes. I looked into the memory dump of one of the blue screen crashes and it pointed to dxgmms1.dll. This hardware didn't have any problems running the game under XP.
I'm not sure where to begin looking... any help would be appreciated.
