crashing when looging to character select

[LordDalkiel]

<p>OK I've never had this problem before, but when I run the patcher and push the play button, it just closes the program completely. I recently reinstalled my OS and copied old eq2 folder over to new one. What am I missing?</p>

<p>OK, figured it out. For anyone that runs into this, I did not have directx 9.0c installed. Yes I did have directx 10 installed. So, hopefully i helped someone.</p>

<p>Glad to hear you figured it out.</p><p>I recommend using the link below as the DXWEBSETUP may say you already have the latest DirectX when it is not always the case.  After download, select a folder and run the DXSETUP file located within it.</p><p><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=3b170b25-abab-4bc3-ae91-50ceb6d8fa8d" target="_blank">[DX9] June 2010</a></p>
