Multiple clients crashing computer

Hi,

Trying to get back into EQ and I'm running into issues where multiple clients are crashing my computer. The screen goes black all of a sudden and stays there. It's been fine 2 boxing, but with 4 I'm running into issues. Sometimes it'll reboot the system and sometimes it just stays black. My frames aren't starting to lag before the crash; the game is playing smooth and the computer just crashes. I have a lot of the eq settings turned down (Almar's recommended settings). Any recommendations would be appreciated. Will probably stop playing if I can't figure it out. Thanks!

What you describe points toward your machine probably not being able to handle running that many game clients for an extended period of time. To help figure this out, you should be monitoring your hardware.

In addition, disable the Windows XBox Game Overlay.
