Run EQ in compatibility mode with XP SP3?

Is there an option for this?

One of the developer's on the eqlive forums said there's a known issue with Windows 7 and sometimes running it in compatibility mode can fix graphic issues.

I'm pretty sure if you browse to the executable (eqgame.exe) in windows explorer, and modify its compatibility mode properties, then any time it is launched (even through IS) it should load with those compatibility mode settings.

Lax, I tried this and IS crashes with an error when running under compatibility mode. I submitted the bug report with the Lavish Crash Reporter. Let me know if you need any more info.
