hello, i am a returning customer and i was having a problem with something and i thought maybe i could get some help here. i havent played eq2 in a long time and i had all the adventure packs up to date and expansions up to kingdom of sky and i had lost my kingdom of sky cd. and my other 2 game and expansion discs ( original and desert of flames ) were at another house so i decided maybe by downloading the trial of the fae i could just get the patcher and if i logged in it would download everything i needed to run including the kingdom of sky files. well after it downloaded i figured out that the trial of the fae launcher would only allow me to play the trial of the fae even after it downloaded every file i had up to date with my account. ok so i deleted the eq2 directory in my computer and i went and got my everquest 2 oringinal and desert of flames box and installed from those cds with the hopes of that launcher just downloading the kos expansion for me and that i would still be able to play without the trial limitation thing of the trial of fae launcher. ok so i get done patching like a day later ( i have slow dsl <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> )  and it comes up and its still got the trial of the fae limitations for some reason. so is there anything i can do to take away the trial of the fae limitations so i can just play the normal account? i am currently subscribed and everything and i just went to the control panel and the trial of the fae was on the remove programs list so i did that and now i went to open up the original eq2 patcher and its downloading another hours worth of a patch..do you think that will clear it up or do i need to start all over again or what? thanks in advance for your help!

Does it download the expansions too?  I've been thinking about coming back (been a year since I've played) too to see what's new.  I have all of the adventure packs from up to a year ago, and also Kingdom of Sky and Desert of Flames, but I have no idea where I put the DVD's.

Now if the launcher would quit stopping every 20 minutes, I could actually play the game.  Something seems to be seriously wrong with it.
