PC Can't handle 3 groups....
Not sure if general PC issues are alright to post, but I don't see anything that advises against it, so apologies if this type of questions isn't welcome here! I've been running 2 groups for a while, and recently started a 3rd group. I play with settings turned down on all but my tank, including stick figures and globaltxt file mods. My pc runs perfectly fine with 12 chars, but as soon as I start to boot up the 3rd group, my pc basically slows down so much it becomes unresponsive. I've got a pretty nice build (I'm no tech expert for sure), so shouldn't have any issues. I've used open hardware monitor for issues like this in the past (RAM), but I don't see anything alarming. Someone else mind taking a look at it to see if you have any suggestions? Or potentially anything else you might recommend I check?

Welcome. This type of question is welcome here. However, the "Errors" forum is intended for MQ2 specific errors: crashes, bugs, etc. In short, errors related to the various products/versions/flavors of MQ2 and plugins available for download from MQEmulator.net. We don't have a specific forum for general EQ troubleshooting so the "General" forum is probably the best spot (and will be read by the most people).

Let's start with hardware issues...

Bank 1 of your RAM shows it's running at 0 MHz. Maybe a bad stick of ram? A memtest will tell you if so.

AMD's website says the 7700 series has 1gb of video RAM. That may be too low. A program called GPU-Z will tell you how much video ram you are actually using. Take note of the amount of video RAM used for 12 characters and for 18 characters.

What is your CPU utilization for 12 characters? 18? See Windows Task Manager -> Performance Tab.
