In regards to floating text, Morgraine, the issue may be related to your operating system. Certain in game settings are saved in a configuration file and if the game does not have the proper privileges to save your settings, they will reset.
If you are using Windows Vista or WIndows 7 try the following step:
- Completely exit the game
- Right click your WoW icon and select "Run as administrator"
- Try turning off combat text
- Restart the game and make sure you use " Run as administrator" one last time
As for the quests, have you tried resetting your UI?
Q u o t e:
How to Reset Your UI
With the game closed please try moving or deleting your WTF, Cache, and Interface folders out of your World of Warcraft directory. These are temporary files that will be recreated by the game the next time you launch. Moving them to the desktop makes it easy to replace them if necessary.
If you see no changes, you may wish to submit an in game ticket and our game masters will be glad to further look into the issue.
