Wecome to EQ.

First things first install a fresh copy in your C drive. To reclaim your character select you could of also adjust your video card to have vertexs on. Remember this game is 17 yrs old it doesn't need a whole lot to function which means to much will break it.

My windows 8 machine had the resolution issue for a while and setting eqgames.exe to compatibility mode will help with this but you also have to set your resolution to the native resolution of your screen and you will reaccquire that inch.

Alt O will bring up options in game need not the EQ button. This all depends on if the fresh copy will result with the same resolution issues.

My first fresh copy resulted in the resolution issues. What reason do I have to think a reinstall of the same exact file system would result in something different? My desktop resolution is set to my monitor's recommended setting, and, as I said in my OP, I have set both windowed, and fullscreen resolutions to match my desktop, therefore that is of no issue. The shortcut to the game is set to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP3(a version of windows wherein I never had a single problem with the game originating from Windows or any of its settings), as well as being forced to run as administrator. As for your mentioning of a GPU setting having to do with "vertexs," I've never heard of anything with that name before, thus you'll have to explain your meaning.
