Subject: [eqbards] SoL


Ok, thanks a lot.

btw, I am running a brand new PC ( 1.7 P4, 512 RAM, 80 gig HD, GeForce 2
with 64mb ) with Windows XP, so Windows 95 is not the problem, I just need
the DirectX 8.1 and I should be good to go. With the above system of mine, I
wonder how much lag I'll have with SoL. Anyone have any other experiences
they would like to share? Will I be able to turn everything on and be able
to play?

Anyone else here run Windows XP? I was wondering if anyone else knew that
you can be running EQ and tab out of EQ and get to your desktop, check your
email or browse the web. We were killing WW dragons this past weekend and
Teenimu and I were tabbing out of EQ and checking that great web site that
lists all the WW dragons. The site lists what the dragon level, drops, if it
complete heals, what resists are needed cold, fire and magic. This can in
handy on which dragons to pull.

There is no more support of Windows 95 or DirectX 8.0.

You will need to download and install DirectX 8.1
