Hot button bar unchangable

[Goryani]

I'm a newbie here to Project 1999. I have the game installed and running. However, I can't seem to be able to make/change any hot buttons. To clarify, I'm referring to the buttons that get pressed when you hit 0 through 9 (default keyboard mapping). From what I remember, you could click & hold a spell or combat ability or social to create a button, then you could drop that button over the hot button bar to place it there. That process isn't working for me.

Also, every time I start EQ, all the tips start again, no matter how many times I clicked to hide that tip, or all tips. It's like the setting isn't getting saved when EQ exits.

If you're running vista or 7, you need to turn off user account control. Basically, EQ does not have permission to edit items in your programs folder, so it cannot save your UI changes.

or you can just relocate your EQ folder to somewhere other than your programs folder...
