WoW flickering and out of alignment?

I just re-installed WinEQ2 since i finally read how to get it working in Vista 64 (had to manually update DirectX 9 so it would run). I am using Vista 64 and everytime I load WoW it flickers around the edges of the window and the mouse doesnt seem to click where I am pointing to on the window. I have to move the cursor off what I want to click on for it to actually 'click' on the things I want. It seems that WoW is having issues overlaying itself on my desktop with WineEQ2.

By default, WinEQ 2 does not change the windowing behavior of WoW, so that flickering should not be happening. You havent changed the window characteristics like lock size, border on/off, etc have you? Messing with those may stop the flickering for you. The defaults should work properly

I did try locking the size and turning the border on. It didnt fix my issue. I noticed when I put WoW into windows mode within WoW itself it stops the crazy flickering but I dont see the border or anything else that WinEQ2 should show me. I even trieed adjusting the position of the window within WinEQ2 to see if I could see the border from WinEQ2 but it didnt help.

I recently discovered a bad memory stick in my system that has been replaced. However, doing that did not get WinEQ2 to work properly. I am going to go back to using WoW's windowed mode and hopefully it will remove my need of WinEQ2. It served me well while I played EQ but I no longer play it. Would still like to figure out why WinEQ2 doesnt work for me but at this point I just dont want to deal with the headache.
