Sorry cant make it smaller.

So i used to play with 2 screens. display 1 just the main and display 2 the other 3 in small windows. that was decent with fps and stuff.

but i was tired of the small letters and stuff so i wanted it a bit bigger. but my pc doesnt seem to like it. Here are my computer specs:

perating System: Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3 (2600.xpsp.080413-2111)

System Model: Dell XPS710
BIOS: Phoenix ROM BIOS PLUS Version 1.10 1.4.1
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs)
Memory: 2558MB RAM ( i have no clue why it says 2.5 but i have 4gb mem)
Page File: 604MB used, 3841MB available
Windows Dir: C:\WINDOWS
DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)
DX Setup Parameters: Not found
DxDiag Version: 5.03.2600.5512 32bit Unicode

I got dual NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX

Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce 8800 GTX
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Device Key: Enum\PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0191&SUBSYS_039C10DE&REV_A2
Display Memory: 768.0 MB
Current Mode: 1680 x 1050 (32 bit) (59Hz)

I dunno what to do maybe upgrade memory but when i check task manager it says it's only using 2k of the 4k.
I'm running the wow clients on 2 on the 10k raptors and 1 client on a 7200RPM and the other also on a different 7200RPM drive
every client uses a different CPU.

Maybe i can try to clock it up a bit i got watercooling so it should be fine.

Im sorry for the big wall of text any help is usefull and if u need more information please say so :)

if you operating system is 32 bit then it's only going to pick up a total of 4gigs of memory, including your graphics card and ram. I upgraded to vista home premium 64 to get my ram to pick up. It's a noticable difference.

i kinda found a sollution for the problem.

I had another computer pretty decent so i just loaded 2 clients on that. bought another copy of Keyclone.
and using that for now.

the only problem i got now is.. that me 2 character from the other comp doesnt seem to react after a while. its like keyclone isnt sending the commands anymore. but i proly should post this in another topic.

anyway thanks alot for the reply Kedash :)
