Consoladating - 1002 error can't patch, no internet

[wannabe]

I see you don't understand. Allow me to be more specific.

I'm on a government Computer. I cannot load software on it. Even if I desperately wanted to becuase I don't have administrator rights.

The ONLY internet connection in 50 miles is the government internet connection and it's only allowed on government computers.

Browsing websites and posting on message boards is the ONLY activity I'm allowed to do in my spare time on these machines.

I'm not supposed to be downloading anything to the harddrives. So far they've let me get away with downloading files, burning them to disc and then transfering them to my laptop, so long as I keep deleting them right afterword off the harddrive.

I cannot hook my laptop upto the network. Period. I try and I get in so much trouble I'll probably never work for the government again.

There is NO internet connection for me to patch with. The EQ installation has NEVER been patched. It's straight off the Install CD.

I'm not allowed to go anywhere either.

Let me repeat this.

I asked if I would be able to install and run this software on one machine, and play EQ using it. I stated I did not have the ability to patch. I was told it's possible.

How?

In another 5-8 months I won't be here, I'll be home and able to hook up to Sony servers again. It won't be a problem then, but I really was hoping to be able to continue playing the game while I'm here. Even if it was by myself.
