I am meticulous about keeping Vista up to date too, not sure if this makes a difference or not but i haven't had any major issues playing EQ besides my crap xml skillz. __________________ Hi I'm a newb, got any plat?

Your playername_servername_ini & UI_Playername_Servername.ini saves your settings . back up a copy of each if you ever decide to change your hard drive or redo windows.

Not sure which lines cause the issue, but I'd recommend renaming the file UI_Character.Backup, and then starting the game again, readjust your UI, /camp desktop, and then load back into the game and you'll find your windows have saved this time... then go make a backup of that file so you don't have to deal with it again.
