Make sure there's no '-' before patchme
ie "c:\program files\sony\everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme

maybe delete and re-create the shortcut.

I've tested fresh installs as working in both Vista and 7 without tweaking anything at all. The only thing to remember is that a fresh installation does not include DirectX 9 so I've always installed a recent rollout of it prior to installing EverQuest.
