<p>Hi Guys</p><p> I am trearinh what hair I have left trying to get EQ2 to run on my Vista 32 Dell XPS M1710 laptop. I downloaded the trail "Play the Fae" but as I had played years ago I had to buy a new game from station which i did.  The play the fae launcher then patched my game ( took about 12 hours). All seems ok and I get the red Play button but when I press it I get a windows message stating " the eq2 client has stopped working.</p><p> I have searched the forums and have carried out the following.</p><p>1- I had already disabled UAC  to allow all my other games to work ( WOW, LOTRO, LON etc), this negates the Run as Admin etc</p><p>2- Upgraded my sound card driver to the latest</p><p>3- Upgraded my Graphics card driver to the latest ( the card is an NVidia 7950GO</p><p>I am now at a loss as I cannot think of ANYTHING else to do, just about to give up as this is the ONLY game I have had any issues with on this machine, just seems like a load of hard work to get nack into Norrath...</p><p>Any help VERY gratefully received before I Give up.....</p><p>Thanks Guys</p>

<p>This will not be a very helpfull response.</p><p>But i read the header... I have been running EQ2, on my XPS M1710, but on Windows XP.</p><p>I have it running on a Vista Acer 20" notebook also, so it should be possible</p>
