<p>I'm having trouble with the Launcher.  At first when I install EQ2 it works on the very first go, but when I log out, and log back in, it won't boot me into the game.  It just keeps updating and updating...I noticed when I go into the folder, it's not getting any bigger, and nothing's changing.  It seems as if it's constantly having some sort of update loop.  When it says "Play", I click it, and then it goes back to updating....over and over again.</p><p>I tried downloading the Station Launcher, and spending most of the day patching 10+GB of information, and it's still doing the same thing.  I saw an earlier post where turning off "read only" might have worked, but that didn't.  In fact, some of the folders revert back to "read only".</p><p>My DXDIAG and nfo files are here:</p><p><a href="http://s199816908.onlinehome.us/DxDiag.txt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://s199816908.onlinehome.us/DxDiag.txt</a></p><p><p><a href="http://s199816908.onlinehome.us/nfo.nfo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://s199816908.onlinehome.us/nfo.nfo</a></p></p><p>Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.  Please note I'm running a trial...but I do want to purchase this if I can solve this problem.</p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Robert</p>

<p>Double check to make sure that you didn't switch versions by accident and that it is trying to update either a different region or the test server folder.  If for some reason you either got switched to a EU server or test in the launcher it will completely redownload the game unless you copy folders over manually.</p>

<p>Well I can't offer you any suggestions but my launcher is <strong><em>extremely</em></strong> slow to log in and can take upwards of 2 minutes to loadup/log in. Could it be the same problem for me?</p>

<p>Thank you to all who responded.</p><p>Please forgive me.  I actually wound up solving the problem this morning.  It seems it won't work if I install EverQuest 2 on a drive that's not the same as the system drive.  Once I uninstalled/cleaned registry/reinstalled on the C drive it works great...however only if I'm in Station Launcher (which seems to update every time I boot it up, but I seem to get in game fine)</p><p>I would prefer having all my games on a separate drive, but one game is alright.</p><p>Thank you all again.</p>

<p>Sounds like a security setting in windows was preventing files from being updated or something got corrupted.</p><p>You can install EQ2 wherever you like as I run windows7 and have it on the partition seperate from windows.</p><p>At least you can play now though.</p>
