You've gotta find that error it's showing you. That's key.

I know they aren't trials, but the error you get for trials is something like "We are happy you're so excited to play Eve, but please limit yourself to playing one trial account at a time." Or something like that.

I assume you've changed to windowed mode, and you you've turned the advanced graphics settings on. There is a selector that will allow you to choose the video card, so if you are running multiple cards you can change that to keep direct x from switching to software when you cross card boundaries, even though the eve client will always go back to the main monitor on log off and even when you change that setting.

Are you running from the same directory or have you done the wow symlink thing? I'm running all of mine from the same directory, so if you are symlinking, try it without.

Beyond that, I've not got any ideas. It just worked for me. Might want to check the forums on the eve site, I know there are people in the rookie channel always asking about it, but they usually are hitting the trial issue which isn't your problem.

Good luck, and do let us know what you find out.

Edit: Are you hitting a cluster queue? I just logged off and logged back on and got the queue message, so maybe you just were logging on in prime time? Just asking everything I can think of.
