Yes, I'm sure it's a bad idea to use the Catalyst drivers for any other card. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear to everyone else. There are alot of users out there with the Radeon 9700+ cards out there that were having this problem.

On the other hand, maybe you can step back through some older GeForce drivers to see if they work.

Apparently, (though I haven't tested them all) the last 3 versions of Catalyst drivers for the Radeon (currently 3.5) don't mesh as well with EVE as the 3.0 drivers do. Maybe you can find the same work-around. Good luck.

For the longest time, I held out on reverting to these older drivers. Finally, last night I checked them out. They work. There are no more character screen locks and I played for about 3 hrs last night without a crash.

I hope this bit of info helps out others out there who are experiencing this difficulty. I hope CCP understands that Radeon card users would like to be able to load the latest drivers and use them successfully in the game.

I've been on these forums alot, lately, ranting and raving. I won't be as much, but I'm still going to check the new drivers with each new patch.

If so, how would I have the character profile deleted? I only have 3-5 seconds on the character screen before my system locks.

I've given a bug report on it and asked for help in the support section giving a Directx Report and bug log from the game. The reply I've received is 'We're stumped'.

Everyone with this problem needs to do the same thing. Please make sure you write down EVERYTHING you know about your computer. Otherwise, you risk spending a week in correspondence with the devs just getting your computer specs right. They WILL ask for log files and directX status.

I was thinking...

Could this be a memory stick timing issue? Could this be solved by upping the voltage to the cpu? I don't know what to try anymore.

Whenever I log to the character screen it locks up. Graphics stop moving in the background. Only one of my profiles loads before this happens. The music continues and I can still move the cursor with my mouse, but cannot interact with anything on the screen anymore. ESC doesn't work and neither does Ctrl-Alt-Del, so I have to reboot when this happens.

I experienced all this originally on the 1077 patch. I was hoping the problem would be fixed by this patch, but, alas, it made no difference.

If this problem has been solved, and I've just missed the word, please, someone, enlighten me.
