LD or rather froze at each zone: SOLVED

[fieni]

Ok, Solved:

The problem was a network//firewall problem, and had nothing to do with drivers or OS.
My PC was connected through a 100mb net to a Intel anypoint wireless device, acting as a firewall. moving my PC in front of it, and therefore not firewalled or NATed, solved the problem.
Now I need to plug a net sniffer to understand why

====== original msg ======


I waiting for the patch to see if anything changed, but no...

Since I installed the latest nvidia drivers (See ref at the end), each time I zone, I get stuck at the screen where the image is frosen without any window or ping bar. If I look at what is going on, there is no network activity, but CPU usage at 90 + % . I tried both using EQW or not, no change.

I play w/ the nvidia tweak wo/ success

Any suggestion of idea?

Seems I am not the only one in this case, if I trust EQ tech board...

Well... Rolling back the driver didn't help.

Weird. I guess I'll wait next patch... LoL!
