Hey everyone,

Hoping I can find some help for my issue. Yes, I did read through as much forum as I could before crashing but I couldn't find anything to help my particular problem. Mind you I am brand new.

I followed the instructions to a T to install the game the right way, remove the specific files and add the patch .zip (replacing when asked).

I changed the eq compatibility to both Windows xp S3 and S2, neither did the trick.

What I am getting when loading the Launch Titanium is a black screen with a gold mouse cursor, but that is it, nothing else loads. I did install this on C: not in program files either.

This common, anything else I can try?

Thank you!

ok im going to try to help, but i have been drinking. did you use a custom launcher? im reading the things you said you did and it doesnt mention that you did this, however if you did compatibility i would assume thats the case.

heres whats in my target in the launcher:C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C START "EQGAME" /low /affinity 1 "F:\EQLite\eqgame.exe" patchme

Try pressing Alt and enter at the same time.

Try pressing Alt and enter at the same time.

Definitely try this. As a caveat though, I usually have to do it twice

Alt + enter - wait a few seconds
Repeat

Thank you kindly for the responses.

Dillian: Yes, I am using two monitors at the moment.

Ambrotos & India: I tried alt enter and it worked. I assume because of the age of the game full screen and what not is not an option. Shows the game in the pop out window.

Now I need to figure out the UI and making my screen bigger and that fun stuff, off to the forums! lol

Thank you!
