I would try downloading the latest drivers for your graphics card. Make sure you are running directx 8.1 and make sure your computer meets minimum specs. If everything is updated directx should adjust your graphics hardware to display everything properly. |

no self respecting monk would want these over the lvl of 20) At the lvl u need to get them, a Monk would sel them to a caster. Black panther skin is MUCH better, just no resists on the crap <verant strikes at the Monks again!>

Be Aware there is currently a bug with the new EQ patch, sometimes when you trade with other players it will go funny on you and the screen will start flashing, when you cancel(or complete) the trade all your windows will turn black.
To fix this your gonna have to goto the server screen, if you c |

You may not be able to upgrade your graphics card since your motherboard is integrated. Unless you have an agp graphics slot. |

I think they had problems and long download times because they were attemtping to download at the same times as thousands of others. I believe others of us have stayed up till odd hours for most time zones and were able to download with less people trying due to them giving up and trying later. |

I am pretty sure I have an agp graphics slot. If not, I guess I won't be playing anymore because I do NOT have the extra $1k+ laying around for a whole new computer.
