While I myself use the folder copy method for setting up eq on all my home PC's, it is possible to be missing a file or have a corrupt file by doing such. I have from time to time seen friend's computers whom my "folder" doesn't work on or has issues so I just give them the disks to do a fresh install. Step one is always do a fresh install if you are having any client issues. Another thing to look at is that you are running a 64 bit OS and EQ is classified as a legacy game even on 32 bit XP...I have yet to load a 64 bit OS and try EQ, but with how picky it is to run even on a 32 bit OS, especially with dual+ cores...I would lean toward that being an issue.
