My machine is strong enough to run 2 accounts. I have 2 monitors and would love to assign an account to each monitor and take advantage of the refer a friend levelling in WoW that I have now.

I have Keyclone but see nothing about 2 monitors, it seems. Is there some way of setting this up? Help :)

And hi to everyone.

There sure is. Go into Set up, Maximizer and then you will see a drop down menu that says Display in about the center of the screen. It'll be right under the big window that represents your desk top.

Now choose between display 1 and display 2. This will also assign regions for your game. Once you have that set up, hit apply m and then go into the Command editor. Make your two accounts ie. Wow 1 and wow2, and assign region 1.1 to wow 1 and region 2.1 to wow 2.

Let us know if ya need more help there.

Follow the example http://www.solidice.com/keyclone/commands.html at keyclone's website on how to setup maximizer. Alternatively, use the wizard.

Ahh ok, this is what happened. Somehow it is showing two wow's on the same window.

Let's try this.

Hit reset under maximizer. Then where you see the numbers on the right , just hit the 1 button.

Now where it says display 1, push on the little triangle and choose Display 2.

Now you should be able to hit the 1 button on the right again.

Mouse over the green area above, and it should tell you what the region is for both now, of course switching between display 1 and display 2.

As long as you have Region 1.x and region 2.x your golden.

What this is , is Region 1.x should be for display 1 and Region 2.x for Display 2.

Of course you can make it more advanced then that, by hand placing regions on any display. But for two accounts this should be fine.

I bet money what happened is the first Display set itself for some reason to a PIP or picture in picture setting. This places a copy of wow inside the main window, which is cool, but a little too small for me to read personally.

Let me know If I can help further man.

BTW, welcome to the boards.
