Dual Boxing Client Freeze

Whenever I dual box since the last patch one of my clients will randomly freeze for 30 seconds to a minute either during grid loads or querying the server in some way. Is anyone else getting this? I tried clearing the cache but didn't help. Sorta sucks to not be able to play my 2 toons at the same time for fear of losing a ship on a gate while my client is locked up.

you're posting on the wrong forum

suggestion to OP turn all graphics down to performance mode preset,
change client to windowed mode.

Want me to shut up? Remove content from my post,1B. Remove my content from a thread I have started 2B.

Probably a RAM issue, or a graphics card issue. Smile

For all we know, could be a lightbulb issue with the specs he posted.

My educated guess would be something is wrong somewhere...

I had a similar situation as you. Unfortunately it just seemed to clear up on its own. Could be a code inefficiency or perhaps your drivers need to be upgraded.

I and others I know of have been suffering the same problem. I doubt it's hardware considering the behemoth I play on.

Damn nature, you scary!
