I've been trying to figure out why i keep crashing for about 2 weeks and I'm stumped. The only time i crash is when i pull u my Task Manager only when i have mq2 loaded. When i log into EQ without mq2 loaded and i pull up the task manager window i don't crash. i have tried unloading plugins but have not fixed the issue. Has anyone else ever come across this?

I've not experienced something like this. But I'm going to take a WAG and suggest that it will ultimately be graphics related.
Start with Windows updates and make sure all updates/patches are installed. Then install latest graphics drivers for your card. (Perhaps do a clean installation if that is offered!).
Then download and run the free Iobit Driver Booster program and let it update all your other hardware drivers.
Then run the EQ configurator from the Patcher and ensure that EQ is detecting the correct video card and then double check all the graphics options. (Maybe try different options?) Switch from Full Screen to Windowed or vice versa.
If nothing else works make a backup copy of your UI and EQclient.ini files, then delete them from the EQ folder and let the game make fresh ones for you?
That actuality makes sense because ever since I upgraded my gpu it started doing this. I have all wishes updates and gpu fresh updates. I will give the eq configuration a try, and check the graphics option. I do know before I upgrade my gpu I use to have my monitors plugged into the motherboard but now I plug them into my gpu so that might be part of the problem as well

Since you have multiple GPUs you might need to refer to How to Choose Which GPU a Game Uses on Windows 10 (howtogeek.com) to ensure your PC is using the "best" GPU.
Good one! that was news to me
