Default Re: everquest and windows xp

Hi MadMark,

Let's try a more confortable solution then. :-)

Reinstall your Everquest game and apply the updates available from SONY.
If you continue to experience the same error, please post back to follow-up.

|| Hi MadMark,
||
|| If you upgraded your existing Windows Me installation, you're risking
|| having more issues down the road. You're best off reformating and
|| performing a clean install of Windows XP. The installer will prompt
|| you for your Windows Me retail CD during the installation process.
||
|| According to this article, EQ has had compatibility issues with XP
|| which requires a patch from Sony to resolve:
