2) Please include as much information as possible, which means "IT'S NOT WORKING HELP" won't do, nor will "it crashes".
Since it might be hard to figure out which piece of information might be required when you're dealing with an issue, here's a list of common ones:
a) Where are you, as in, at which screen, in which program, etc.
b) What was your last action before the issue happened.
c) Which version of Windows are you running? ME? 2000? XP? XP SP2?
d) What is the exact(!) error message?
e) Is it a consistent bug, are you able to get around it, and are you able to reproduce it at will?
f) Which steps have you already taken to try and fix it? This step is in fact very important. If you do not include this, do not expect to receive help
g) Which router/firewall are you using, and have done anything to set it up for SoD?

Be specific. If you can do the same thing two different ways, state which one you used. "I selected Load" might mean "I clicked on Load" or "I pressed Alt-L". Say which you did. Sometimes it matters.
Be verbose. Give more information rather than less. If you say too much, the programmer can ignore some of it. If you say too little, they have to come back and ask more questions. One bug report I received was a single sentence; every time I asked for more information, the reporter would reply with another single sentence. It took me several posts to get a useful amount of information, because it turned up one short sentence at a time.
Be careful of pronouns. Don't use words like "it", or references like "the window", when it's unclear what they mean. Consider this: "I started FooApp. It put up a warning window. I tried to close it and it crashed." It isn't clear what the user tried to close. Did they try to close the warning window, or the whole of FooApp? It makes a difference. Instead, you could say "I started FooApp, which put up a warning window. I tried to close the warning window, and FooApp crashed." This is longer and more repetitive, but also clearer and less easy to misunderstand.
Read what you wrote. Read the report back to yourself, and see if you think it's clear. If you have listed a sequence of actions which should produce the failure, try following them yourself, to see if you missed a step.

Locate E-q Executable

well he installed EverQuest then replaced the maps,then he ran the SoD-Patcher

and although the SoD-Patcher is inside the directory
Code: 
"C:\Program Files\S0ny\EverQuest"
it sends all of the files to his Desktop,then he has to Cut and Paste them into the Directory,and he gets the error called

Code: 
Locate Eq Executable.
 
I don't mean to be a bitch here, but please read what I quoted and reply using that info. Right now all I know is that somewhere between him opening the patcher and the patcher trying to open the game there's an error.
 
eh its np,hes offline at the time,im just trying to make sure u know everything that i do,so far ive told u everything i know,so ill ask him to write it down exactly as it occurs,and to tell me everything he's done so far,that way i can inform u.
