Unhappy Black screen on startup, tried everything

Using Windows 7 x64, ATI Radeon HD 5450 graphics card.

Fresh install. After setting everything up, I go to launch, the screen goes black and the cursor changes to the EQ cursor and then it just sits there.. I don't even make it to any menu or login screens.

I followed the install instructions to a 't', read and re-read the FAQ, and still no dice. Is this just not going to work on my system?

Figured it was a video card/driver issue, updated my drivers, changed my screen resolution, the resolution in the OptionsEditor, and even tried running in 640 x 480 from the EQ.exe-->Properties-->Compatibility tab several different ways and configurations. No luck anywhere.

Any help?
