Cant open EQ? Screen goes black and back to desktop.

[Zephar]

So Ive done everything according to the readme. But I cant open the actual game. Like I dont get anything. I click on the shortcut, which Ive redirected to the place where the readme told me to. But when I click on the shortcut, the screen goes black like its trying to open and then it just goes back to desktop. No errors, nothing. Just like it never happened. Im running Windows Vista, I have Direct X 9 and I meet all the requirements.
