EQ1 window layout issue

I have 2 identical computers with the same setup. 3440x1440 ultrawide monitors that I split in 1/2 and run 4 characters across the two screens with no real swapping. So each window is 1720x1440.

When I load the left computer its fine. When I load the second instance on the right monitor it crashes(reset device 0) no matter what account I load into it(so I know its not a game issue) There is something in my setup that it isn't happy with. I notice under the regions on both computers is show //display 6 for some reason. I only have 1 monitor per computer.

Not a lot of info to go on but I made my setup in 2016 and its been going since. I seems to have happened since the latest innerspace patch but I haven't played in a while.

So today I cleared my profile and started over and created a window layout that did what I want and the game loaded. I copied the working window layout to my setup and reloaded and the second window crashed.

There is something funky in my profile causing this issue and I am completely stumped. I am wondering if it has to do with videofx being read from the second window and shown on the first.

I have the same thing happen with my second window.
Works in character set with 5 accounts
Fails in character set with 6 accounts.

If you make a new Window Layout, does it still show Display 6 ?

The number here is an internal Windows reference and the number it uses has no bearing on the number of actual displays attached (i.e the OS thinks of it as Display6 - it does not mean you have 6 displays!!!).
The one thing that comes to mind is that if the OS doesn't actually think of it as Display6 then it has to remap it to the actual display, and this might cause an instability.

For each computer I would get the toolkit to make a new Window Layout, and see if that resolves (note: if your profile is as old as you say, you may find the Computer node of your profile specifies the Display settings for the second computer and you will need to double check with the toolkit on the actual computer if the values in the profile are correct).

I started my profile over from a blank and only added the stuff I wanted and got rid of a bunch of stuff. It works. My setup is two desktop computers with 1 3440x1440 ultrawide each and a laptop with a 4k display.

The ultrawides I divide in half and run a borderless window that takes up 1/2 the screen for each instance of everquest.

Eventually rather then being two windows side by side the first slot(left side) with have both windows and when you click on it it will cycle through the two instances. I have to quit out of one character and reload to get it to correct itself. I can't understand why there would be intermittent weirdness but it happens on both of my desktop computers randomly.
