I've installed Eve on a different machine from my home one (ok, I want to be able to log in at work!) and I've come across the the following problem. Starting the game gets me to the splash screen and then the game hangs with massive disk activity, which doesnt stop until i give it the three fingered salute and stop it through task manager.
The log file generates the following..
661 : trinity.TriDevice: HRES:none(none)
"unnamed", RotUrl:"tri:/dev",
CurrentArea:"",
CurrentShader:"", RotUrl "(null)", :
There is no D3D device available
660 : triui.UIWindow: Cannot prepare cursor, no D3DDevice
659 : triui.UIWindow: Cannot prepare cursor, no D3DDevice
658 : triui.UIWindow: Cannot prepare cursor, no D3DDevice
662 : trinity.TriDevice: HRES:none(none)
"unnamed", RotUrl:"tri:/dev",
CurrentArea:"",
CurrentShader:"", RotUrl "(null)", :
There is no D3D device available
663 : trinity.TriDevice: HRES:none(none)
"unnamed", RotUrl:"tri:/dev",
CurrentArea:"",
CurrentShader:"", RotUrl "(null)", :
There is no D3D device available
etc etc, and this will carry on indefinately. Obviously the problem is a D3D one, but looking at DXDIAG everything looks OK with the video card being D3D enabled.
The vid card is an Rage 128 Pro Ultra GL which passes all the D3D tests in DXDIAG. I've downloaded the latest Direct X from Microsoft with no change, and done the same with the vid card drivers.
Any suggestions much appreciated!

Im not to fluent w/ the logs that you might be expierencing but from the people that i have helped in the past w/ related issues. Even though it says you have a video related issue it could in fact be a bridged audio settings bug. so heres my fix for you.
Go into your CCP folder and look around for a file named "prefs.ini" there will be a title in the list named "audiohardwareacceleration" or somthing of that matter and a variable to the right of it. change that variable to "0" and see if that cures you of your troubles. If that dosent work. check the website of your vid card and see if you can obtain more recent drivers for your card. Hope I helped. DSL

That particular video card only supports up to DirectX 8.1 and does not feature Hardware Transform & Lighting. The latest drivers for the card are from 2001 or, if you are using Windows XP, supplied with that OS.
You need a new card.

I've been playing EVE since October 28 with not a single crash to desktop. Suddenly on January 5th (yesterday) I crashed 5 times and each time I looked in the log file it said the same thing about no D3D drive available.
I have installed no new software on this computer at all except for anti-virus definition files (and those were over a week ago) so I'd like to know why all of a sudden I have these problems.

Have you tried clearing the cache and/or uninstalling and reinstalling the client? You may also want to re-install your video drivers.

I had CTDs all the time. Six in one hour tonight, include one that produced a dump. I have a Radeon 8500. All drivers are up to date. I have disabled audio by setting audio=0 in prefs.ini. I have cleared the cache, reinstalled, reinstalled in safe mode. I am running XP with SMP. I have tried running in Windows 98 compatibility mode. I have play many other games. I use it do 2D and 3D graphics all without a problem. I have conculded that the problem is not in my set. CCP needs to fix their engine.

This is a bit off topic, but I am getting tired of being sent to the login box because of a bad packet. The error rate on my connection is very low. The application layer should be able deal with a bad packet in a more appropriate way.

Sforza,
Take a look at using a remote desktop solution for playing from work. I am using that at times and it is playable.
Link to how I do it.
