I was messing around and I tried turning of SLI on my vid cards and it fixed it. I searched the EQ2 tech forums and they say that SLI doesn't work on EQ2 anyway so its no big deal. I've always had SLI on without the mod and had no problems tho so that part is strange.
So,
SLI off + EQ2Maps = good
SLI on + no EQ2Maps = good
SLI on + EQ2Maps = bad
