Reload this Page Vista, Shortcut, secondary drive, and patchme. So simple, so irritating.

Is there an executable in your EQ directory labeled eqgame.exe?
You might try using that instead. I was able to add the patchme call at the end of the shortcut on my Vista machine, just didn't use the quotes.

As Myrakkel said you want to use "D:\Everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme not "D:\Everquest\EverQuest.exe" patchme. Also I am running Vista Home Premium with UAC enabled and it works just fine for me.

People actually run Vista on purpose?

UAC's enabled on my Vista installation. It's not a problem for me.

The patching to live will occur in either XP or Vista if you use the default shortcut which points to Everquest.exe instead of eqgame.exe.
