When you run WINEQ2, what happens? I get a small multi colored box that pops up near the clock next to the volume/USB unmount area in the task bar.
I right click on that and it gives you multiple game options like EQ, EQ2, DAoC. Each one has multiple "profiles" available when you put the mouse over the game title. FOr running p99 I click on the profile that I modified with those settings I mentioned before. When I modified the settings I made sure to rename the profile to something more unique than Everquest Profile 1.
My processor is a FX-8350, 16GB DDR3 Ram, Radeon 7870 and EQ/WINEQ2 are both installed onto a SSD. So we have very similar systems from what I can tell. I didn't have to make any changes to bios or anything else like that. But without WinEQ2 the game will NOT run on my system. And unless I run it exactly like I laid out here, It will not work.
If my instructions suck let me know and Ill make some screenshots of my process. I don't even remember how I figured this out. lol
