Basic Server Install - Windows -- requirement to run installer batch no more than one folder deep into drive root not mentioned

[ghost]

maybe more importantly, it took me a while to figure out what the heck the error message for this meant until I opened eqemu_server.pl itself. error given is "You must run eqemu_server.pl in an empty directory"; I was baffled because it's obviously not going to work if I empty the directory of files other than the .pl mentioned.

Bless you for this script! outside that little hiccup (perhaps I'm duller than most), everything went great!
