    Have a brand new pc with a fresh install of EQ and the screen just freezes randomly anywhere from 5 minutes to 3-4 hours. Only way to close the game is to end process in task manager.

    Any ideas as to the cause?

    There are several reasons this can happen. having more information is req as well. some times you have to just let the client be, and see if it returns to an active/playable state. Running EQ elevated or, Run as Administrator. check your drivers, and such are the 1st issues to check.

    What else is running or being loaded at boot? how many clients are you trying to run, and if more than one, what does your ini files load? was your install downloaded from DBG or from Steam?

    there are too many variables to give much more advice than this at present. knowing your system specs (CPU, RAM, GPU etc). then your OS, and what windows is loading @ boot, if you have found a remedy, pls post that here so others could benefit, if not, more information is needed to try and help you.
