Another Noob In Need of help
 

Ok, i'm totally new to all of this, but I think I followed the steps correctly. I ran EQ first to get the updates, replaced the stuff in eqhost and datarate, and made the link to eqgame.exe with patchme at the end. Now when I go to run EQ, using the above link, my screen goes blank and it appears its trying to start up the game, but then after a couple seconds it just returns to my desktop, and nothing happens.

Try downloading EQWindows at www.eqwindows.com. Once you run it click off the Run Patch Program

ok i'll try it out, thanks
