|| Hi MadMark,
||
|| Let's try a more confortable solution then.

||| OMG u gots to be kidding, reformat and reinstall?? ur looking at a 50 y/o

|||| Hi MadMark,
||||
|||| If you upgraded your existing Windows Me installation, you're risking
|||| having more issues down the road. You're best off reformating and
|||| performing a clean install of Windows XP. The installer will prompt
|||| you for your Windows Me retail CD during the installation process.
||||
|||| According to this article, EQ has had compatibility issues with XP
|||| which requires a patch from Sony to resolve:
