EQ2 Maps causing game to crash

[shrek_fx]

After eq2 maps downloaded map updates, its been causing the game to crash at the start up screen.. I've deleted the updater and the eq2 maps files out of the UI and still no go. did get further into the start up process though.. I just took out the entire UI file and redownloading it now.. I've talked to a few others with the same problem already this morning. Any help will be greatfull. thanks
