Also, you may want to lower UAC levels in win7 to a lower level to give you more access to your files.

Go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories.
Right click notepad and select "Run as administrator".
Select File -> Open and change the option from "Text Files (*.txt)" to "All Files (*.*)".
Navigate to where your eqhosts file is located and click open.
Edit and save the file.

Default eqgame for windows 7 not working

so i have the game installed and made all the necessary changes needed to play the game, i even changed the compatibility mode and selected 'run as administrator' but it seems like every which direction i attack it from, it always opens a window saying 'please run Everquest.exe'.. if you know how to bypass this, please help!

Example: goto C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe Right Click icon create a shortcut it will place an icon on your desktop.
Right click the icon you put on your desktop called eqgame.exe shortcut go down to properties Under shortcut you see
"C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" make it look like this "C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\eqgame.exe" patchme then click apply.

Copy Eqhost.txt to desktop make changes as needed then copy back too directory.

It's much better to move EQ out of the Program Files or Program Files (x86) directory so you avoid the file virtualization issues.
