Default Upgraded to windows 10...

I am hoping someone would be able to help me get up and running again. As a disclaimer, I am not computer savy at all, and the computer is very old, the model is a HP pavilion media center m8120n, the video card is upgrade to a radeon x1650 pro.

I was running windows 7 but I let it upgrade to 10, it was working perfectly fine before the upgrade, then you can see in the attatched pictures that something is wrong, can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Thank you

You need to reinstall EQ looks like your files are broken.

Have you tried compatibility mode and messing with resolution in the eqclient.ini file?

Do you have issues with other games or just EQ?

Windows 10 is fine as long as you do a fresh reset of your computer once you upgrade to it. Did that reinstalled all my games and classic shell and cant even tell a difference between 7,8,10 other then some color scheme differences.

Windows 10 is the most stable Windows I have ever used (and I'm going back to Windows 2.0 here), I don't know why more people don't use it.

here's atleast 26 reasons not to, directly from Microsoft (and that's just the ones that are actually in our control...)
