NEvermind to the above. I dled the game anyway. First I made a char and it was LinkDead. I did the fix listed for WinXp and it worked. I made a new char and was loging in, I cancled the first time and out it into full screen mode. Then, after waiting about 15 min at the loading screen I was in the game. I couldnt move or do anything or see my mouse, and every once in a while ((it seemed whenever I got a pop up)) some text would aprear and I would see people talking. But I myself couldnt talk, move, do anything. It just kept loading.... and after another 15 min, its been about 45 min now, I hit reset and came here to ask this question. IS IT ALLWAYS SO SLOW???!!!
