It's either the patcher being run (and clicking play) from a different folder than your eq install folder. Or the shortcut to eq you're using has an incorrect "Start in" path.

I took the DL'r out of the folder, and it wouldn't work. I put the DL'e back into the folder and it now works. I made a shortcut to put on my desktop.
