Re: ISboxer not loading character sets

I uninstalled webroot and tried to load the box team but it still didn't work.

Re: ISboxer not loading character sets

ok, well, beyond updating your graphics driver to something a bit more recent (v341.74 is circa Aug 2014), I can't see anything else that might be causing the issue.

Re: ISboxer not loading character sets

I just went to update my driver and it says that v341.74 is the latest driver that's installed. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Isboxer and innerspace and accomplishing my box team. It loaded the first character and resized the screen but that's it and I tried to launch the other individually but they just overlap. Another thing I can't click anything on login screen and it doesn't seem like the repeater is turning on.

341 is definitely not the latest version of nVidia drivers—we're well into the 390s at this point. Version 340 must be several years old, so I would suggest going to the nVidia website and downloading the latest WHQL driver.

Nothing is going to work (e.g. Repeater) until you can get Inner Space to hook into the game clients, and that's what we're trying to solve at the moment.

I went to the nVidia website and it had me download 342.01 but it doesn't give me an option to download anything past that. :( I Tried to launch after downloading still no luck. I'm not sure what to do now.

Re: ISboxer not loading character sets

What GPU do you currently have installed in your computer?

Re: ISboxer not loading character sets

Hokay....
That would explain that then.

We don't really know whether the aged graphics driver is no longer compatible with Inner Space, and someone would have to drag the bottom of the barrel to come up with the necessary 10 year old hardware to even test it to find out. I might have a 8800GTX, but I'm not sure I've got all the necessary hardware to run it - power supply plugs come to mind (as they changed in about 2009).
We do know that EQ works for most peoples, and your issue indicates Inner Space is not able to get control.

You might have some luck by reinstalling the DirectX setup. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... aspx?id=35

As I said earlier, there is nothing else that stands out as a problem.

You could check in the Windows Settings -> Gaming, and make sure that all the Game Bar, Game DVR, Game Mode items are all turned off. They aren't showing up as hooking in from the diagnostic you provided, but they may still be there.

Re: ISboxer not loading character sets

Just looking at the rest of the machine specs, I don't get why it's got a 10 year old graphics card with the rest of the hardware in the 3 year timeframe.

Anyway, something current. Any of the 1060 (6GB preferred), 1070, 1080 series would be more than enough for EQ (probably over the top really, but it allows for other games).

If you wanted cheep, a 1050 would be fine too. If you plan on playing other recent games, then I'd go with one of the above over a 1050.
If you don't mind going back a generation, the 960/970/980 series are more than suitable too, although these ran hotter and thus louder than current gen.
