Thanks Slam for the reply. I saw you posted that walkthrough earlier today and its much appreciated! I did try it without any success, but tonight I am gonna complete start from scratch and try again; I think I made so many little changes that something must be tweaked.
Did have 2 specific questions in regards to your config steps:
1. I use a custom UI (Profit). Therefore, I should just be copying the 2 UI files to my existing Profit folder, correct?
2. Is there any place that requires my characters name? I have seen other ini's that require this, and noticed yours only asks for server. Just want to make sure I am not over looking anything.
I will report back later with my progress *crosses fingers*

Update: I am happy to report that I finally got it working! I am not sure exactly what fixed it. After completely reinstalling everything the mousedemo would not run. I found this post (
http://www.taultunleashed.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=36726) that suggests loading directx8 & 9 test from within UI. I did that and mousedemo worked on both. I then tried EQ2 and it worked there too!!
Next I installed Ultrabot following your instructions to a 'T' and it starts now (although I am still learning how to use it properly).
This brings me to another question:
3. I copied the eq2.ini file to the EQ2 directory as instructed, however I obviously have been reverted back to default UI. What can I do to still use my custom UI as well as ultrabot? Can I just copy some lines from one ini to another?
Thanks Slam666!
