I don't know why you think anyone is discriminating against you.

But if you want help, you need to tell us *what* is going wrong, i.e. an error message or the like. We cannot magically infer what the problem is just from that you did a clean install and it is not working.

The comment to get a job was clearly a joke.
I use eq2map on 2 systems, the first with Win XP sp3 and second
with Vista X64. No problem at all.

Instead of whining, tell us what the error messages is saying.

Eq2map is free so dont whine.

Is this related to a .Net framework update from Microsoft? I believe their updater requires Windows 2000 SP6 and Windows XP SP2 or higher, and won't deliver downloads/updates to systems not up to at least those service pack levels. If the error happens when trying to update or install the .Net framework used by EQ2Map, the problem is probably on the Microsoft side of things.

It's also possible that the .Net library in EQ2Map is rejecting an outdated .Net framework installation on the machine. If it is, that's also not code the EQ2Map devs can control.

I assume you are using Windows XP SP3? There's no such thing as Windows XP 2000. If you are using Windows 2000, now that might be the issue.

But yeah, I suggest trying to update to the latest .NET and see if that helps.
