Options not 'holding'

[Ciel]

I've recently reformatted the comp w/o backing up any of my P99 files, thinking I'd just re-download them NP! Well most everything is peachy except the fact the none of the options I change (alt+o) ever stay changed when I close EQ. My UI is good, just not my options. Every time I load back into EQ I need to 'fix' all my option preferences, and key-bindings. Loading into other chars once I do my initial option-tuning is fine. I only need to 'fix' my options 1 time per logging on EQ, though I'd rather not have to that anymore!

Anyone have any insight for me? What am I missing?
