Can't get the game running

[Bopt]

I did all the steps posted on the website (steps one through five on the eqemu website, and then all the ones on here), but when I launched the game for the first time it started to patch, then stopped at one point and gave an error. Now it's loading again and it's asking me to upgrade to the station launch pad or whatever, but the file path is blank and wont let me chose a new one. I think I did something wrong with the desktop icon?

This is what I have for the target: "C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\EverQuest.exe" patchme

I'm running windows 7, which is a nice OS, but it's only caused problems so far with eqemu.

Thank you to anyone who takes the time to reply!
