Here is my PC specs.

I use HKN(hotkeynet), mousemachine and a hex editor

Anyways im curious if there are any other MMOs that have a free trial that i can try with the same setup/multiple accounts per computer.

Thanks in advance.

I guess i need to add a few questions to my post,
First
which of these games can i run multiple accts on 1 PC
second
who has played any of these and i am trying to stay away from WoW.

Thanks for the response :)

I played EVE out of the ones he listed there.

Its boring as hell, and takes about 1 year + to become even remotely competative.

Its very much suited for multiboxing however. They even patched the client a few weeks ago to make it work better with multiple clients open.

Daoc was way easy to learn and get the feel for and whatnot

guess its always strange trying new MMOs lol

How did you get 4 instances of DAoC to run? Did they change the way it loads? I thought you used to only be able to have 2 instances running at any given time.

no one computer can only run two instances still, i was able to hex edit a file (which is bannable) and get 4 or more to run

hehe, that was also the way to MB in ultima online. Hex Edit the client to allow more then 1 running at the same time.

To the OP:

I've got basically the same PC as you and I can run 5 WoWs without stress, it will also run at least 4 copies of EVE at once but as Lorune said EVE is terminally boring and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Back before I ever heard of Keyclone, I 2 and 3 boxed World of Kung Fu beta on one computer.
It's one of those game's that's free to play, but you're able to buy "Gold" pieces with your credit card, and this "Gold" can be used on exclusive items.
It's also possible to never pay a cent and be the top guild in the game (None of them had ever bought gold. They used ingame currency (Taels) they had farmed to trade for Gold.
Very fun game, easy to run even if you're doing it without a keyboard emulator. I'd recommend a spear user (AoE grinder) with a Fans (healer) or Hooks (great buffs and minor heals) partner to 2box. Anything past that would be gravy.
