Quad Core Launching

[Zadrian]

Hey Folks -

My friend has a pc with 32-bit windows xp and a quad core processor.

Now, i know there is a thread explaining how to fix quad core issues in game, however - our dilemma is that the game isn't even launching.

When we click on the shortcut, the screen goes black for a second, but then we get the shutdown error "eq game has experienced a problem"

We never get beyond that point.. Has anyone experienced this and do you know if wineq2 will fix this?

We haven't had a chance to try wineq2
