How much RAM do you have installed? And what kind of graphics card?
My EQ2 does not go down with frame rate when I switch applications. I am not much into that, but it could be DirectX swapping around textures on low-memory situations.
A while ago I had some problems where EQ2 went down to 1 FPS when the game screen got overlayed with something else, like a popup from a messenger when someone got online. I still think it was related to the mainboards chipset, never had it again once i switched it.
