Hey guys.
I've done everything that is says on that post of how to set up MB (By Micah). I am just 2 boxing. Both of the computers connected with eachother. But is there something I am missing. It doesnt seem to work. How can I do a quick test to see if its working properly?

Honeslty, I am thinking I'm just missing some basic requirement.

Thanks,
USC

I swear I read this post somewhere else ;)

Start MultiBox Server on main PC
Start MultiBox Client on main PC
Start MultiBox Client on secondary PC
Make sure the port settings match on both machines
Set up monitor layout (drop boxes with computer names)
You should see network spam in the Server window: "Computer1 has connected on 192.168.0.101"
Make sure the host name for the server is selected
Add all machines to hosts file on every PC: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
"Computer1 192.168.0.101"
"Computer2 192.168.0.102"
"Computer3 192.168.0.103"


(...and this is in the wrong forum)
