    Default Problem running 2 accounts

    Hi guys!

    Well I´m brand new to this forum and the dual boxing thingy...
    Got my second account and tried running them on my computer but it crashes all the time. I have copied my entire wow folder to a different directory and renamed it. Got a brand new computer 2,6Ghz dual core, 2Gb ram, 512Mb Gpu ...so it can´t be the hardware right?

    The problem is when i load up the second screen, then the first screen gets laggy as hell (running with minimal video settings just to make sure) and finally crashes...rebooting my computer.
    Have searched the net to no avail

    You guys have any suggestions? would appreciate any help...

    This sounds like more of an error to do with dodgey RAM to me. Try running a RAM test disk on it for 8+ hours, see what it comes up with.

    I'd recommend this memory tester.

    FYI, use url= rather than link=

    OK, it isn't ATI. I've had issues on my ATI boxes at times. You ruled that out, though. :P

    One monitor or two?

    If one can't help...

    Two could be that thing to do with Nvidia dual view, try spanning the desktop between the two (doesn't work well if monitors are different resolutions (I mean it will still work but one will be too high the other too low or something... (I have a 19" and a 17" and Spanning is a pain. ))).

    "Lost-Ninja" - Only got one monitor atm,

    ok, I have noticed that the lag starts already when I´m at the login screen ( those green "flames" around the account name and password)
