If you are using the beta station launcher, I believe you need to make sure it is set to US english for the language</p>

<p>Is your version of Windows updated to the most recent version?  I believe the launchpad uses internet explorer files for some functionality so you'll want to make sure it is fully updated. </p><p>I think you can modify the following file to change your region manually, though.  Please back up the file before trying, since this isn't the normal way to change the region.  The following file is in your Everquest 2 directory:</p><p>LP_options.xml</p><p>Once you're inside that file you should see something similar to the this line, near the top:</p><p><span ><</span><span >DefaulT</span> <span >RgnID</span><span >="</span><strong>LP_REGION_EN_EU</strong><span >"</span><span > /></span></p><p>Change it to look like this:</p><p><span ><</span><span >DefaulT</span> <span >RgnID</span><span >="</span><strong>LP_REGION_EN_US</strong><span >"</span><span > /></span></p><p>Let us know if that corrects the problem.</p>
