[roadrunner197069]

Maybe you need to uninstall one completely and only install eq2?

 

[jonny123]

everquest2 has detected an unrecoverable error and must shutdown
<verify>E:\live\eq2\framework\core\devices\src\Directx9renderDevice.cpp(1059):

failed to create D3D device for radeon X1650 series

 

[roadrunner197069]

Update your drivers and reinstall

 

[jonny123]

i been doing that all day one video card i know its make and model and so on but the RadeonX300/X550/X1050 series thats what it shows in device manger even though i tryed to only load RadeonX300 series

 

[jonny123]

any way to tell what kinda video card the RadeonX300/X550/X1050 series is if its good for my games or jest bearly geting by ?

 

[roadrunner197069]

Its junk.

 

[rolli59]

That asrock board has intel 950 onboard graphics if you are trying to run that on ATI drivers you are in trouble. If you have a dedicated GPU why don't you pull it out and find out the specs of it, if it is one of the ati cards you mention it is little better than the onboard solution but all of them are not considered gaming cards.

Hey Roadrunner, how about you quit spamming threads and linking to your POS system build auctions on eBay?

If people are posting here they will know enough about building computers, or are trying to know enough, that they aren't going to waste money on your crap.

 

[johnnyq1233]

this thread is very confusing.......what are we talking about?
It sounds as though his video is not up to the task of running this game!
First off, can you post a "sytem info" snapshot of your computers?

How about keeping your opinoins to yourself? Maybe if you knew anything you could offer the OP some help?

First, make sure you have the latest version of Direct X9 (9.0c)...

Second (and this is what will probably fix your issue) COMPLETELY UNINSTALL the ATi Drivers, and UNINSTALL THE CCC (Catalyst Control Center)!!!!! DO NOT FORGET TO REMOVE THE CATALYST CONTROL CENTER!!

Third, restart your computer

Fourth, go to http://ati.amd.com and download the newest drivers for your card, and install them...

Fifth, Restart your computer again...

Should be good to go now...

Learn how to spell, and punctuate. After that grab yourself a copy of World of Warcraft.

I'd say after you grab yourself a copy of Hellgate Lodon baby! Oh wait, WoW is designed for low end GPU's, lol oh snap!

Hell gate london by know means requires anything special. If you ask me the game looks retarded.

Oh SNAP!
