Black screen

Hi there!

I was 2 boxing for half a year using WinEQ 1.38, cause first i had probs with WinEQ2. For a while now i am 3 boxing on just one PC since i am lacking the money to buy another PC.

Usually all works fine, but in zones with many players, such as POK or GF lately one of my toons keeps getting a black screen right or soon after zoning in. I can see the toon with the other toons, i can even still run around, just the screen keeps black till i relog all 3.

So i kept wondering what the prob is, since my system shouldnt be too bad, at least WinEQ shows both enough free memory and video memory. Only thing i could think about is, that i prolly dont have enough video memory, since i assigned 256k of memory to the video memory in the bios settings.

So prolly WinEQ shows enough free video memory, tho the video memory itself is already full. Can someone acknowledge such a problem? Did anyone else ever run into a problem like this? Any ideas would be very appreciated.

Thx

PS: I am running another 3 boxes on a diff PC with exactly the same setup and NO problems at all...VideoCard is ATI 9800 PRO 128MB

Boo for posting on the macroquest2.com forums when I have forums specifically for this :( http://www.lavishsoft.com/forum

Either way, run EQ with WinEQ 2, and post SysInfo.txt for me. The problem is almost always outdated video card drivers.
