Ok, since i patched up to march 23rd and upgraded dx. had to reformat comp so had to patch =( lol Ok, when I run Eq in a window Alt + enter or with eqwindow, the window is the size of my screen, sometimes bigger. I tried changing reso of EQ to, 1024 by 768 is windows setting, tried EQ in 1024 by 768, that is what i use to have b4 i reformated and it worked fine, but now that widnow is size of screen, so i tried 800 x 600 for EQ and window is still Huge, Anyone no the fix for this?

What do you mean "it's still huge?"

If you're using 1024

Also, make sure when u run EQW, the box "Fix eqclient.ini" is checked. Other than that, reduce the resolution of the screen. Go to options, next and then there ya go.!

Sorry, I guess your writing is chicken scratch...We need someone to do some spell check on these boards. I really don't know what your question is but go into eqclient.ini and find something that says "Windowed=-" and either change it from true or false to the opposite.

None of these worked, and to clarify, the problem was when I tried to run EQ in window mode or with eqwindows, the window EQ was in is bigger then my screen. I use to be able to run EQ in a box in the middle when it was the same reso as my desktop ( both EQ and Desktop in 1024 by 768 ) It was a pretty small box. I tried changng the reso of EQ to 800 by 600 and the box is still bigger then my screen. It is like when I change the reso it doesnt affect anything. Also, I tried to do all the things you guys said to do and it didnt work either=(

First things first. I know you've probably already verified all this but. . .

Check your Desktop resolution (right-click on an empty area in your desktop, click on "Properties", go to the "Settings" tab, and look in the "Screen area" section) to make sure you're running at a higher setting than EQ is.

It looks like either your Desktop resolution isn't set at what you think it is or EQ isn't keeping your settings when you change them.

If none of those are the case (or even if they are) then I'd suggest posting on Sony's EQ forums at http://eqforums.station.sony.com/eq/board?board.id=tech. They'll be able to help you more than we can.

Just be sure not to mention EQEMu!
