Every time SmartUpdate trys to run it wants me to reboot , then reboot , then reboot .
If I just keep saying no and loading DS it works sooner or later, but Rebooting doesen't do a thing.
Its WG--.dll file its trying to update , sorry didn't right it down

Its the msvcrt.dll
It tries to update at different times too when I try loading game, entering Lobby, loading Mission, or after I shut down game

Got real excited when I saw that file Backslsh but still no luck.
was a good Idea though thanks
I'm really stuck haven't had this much trouble fixing a game yet.
at least it still works if I keep loading, and loading, and loading it, untill patcher desides not to run.
I can Patch from Lobby screen without it asking me to Reboot.
is there a way to disable automatic patching??

disabling updates-
locate config.ini in your darkspace folder
change doupdate=1 to doupdate=0 (theres 2 of them, one for the client and one for the lobby), save and close
right click on config.ini > properties > click Read-Only box
note that you wont be able to change things like emotes, log in info/auto log in, lobby skin colors, basically anything under view->options

Nice idea, Doran. You could change said things you can't change manually in that same file, though.

Thanks Doran that one got it.

Now it puts me back into Lobby after Logging out.
Which I thought was really Dum having to restart game everytime you leave a Server.
Thanks alot guys
Alot more help here that I would have ever gotten from EverQuest Suport
You all might be stuck with me (untill I get board or Ticked off)
