BSOD when running 2x WoW on 2x Monitors + Keyclone

[FantaPants]

Well im running 1 instance of Wow on one monitor and another instance on my second monitor both full screen using maximizer. Im continually getting BSOD's while running this setup im not sure whats causing beyond the error message in the system error log which says error ID 1003 according to the microsoft website this is a problem with DHCP. My machine is AMD dual core 2400, 2GB RAM and 9600GT. Each WoW install is on a seperate hard disk and the errors are still occuring on a pretty much clean windows install cause they killed the last one

Any help would be appreciated

IDEA: could this be a problem with having my screens setup as dual view and not span? i read somewhere this could be causing issues.

sounds like a memory issue.
applications these days aren't generally causing BSOD. those only happen with hardware issues (like memory) and device driver problems.

one thought, start a single wow... log in... get to sounds... turn off background sound.
exit to force the setting to disk.
restart 2 wows and see if that helps.

Ok thanks i will try disabling the background sound on my alt cause i had it on. Will let you know how it goes. If it doesn't work should i have a look at the hardware side of things?

maybe. maybe you might need to update your drivers. how old is the box? have you updated your video drivers lately?
DHCP is network... but i wouldn't imagine that would crap out (the network layer is fairly solid)

of course... one question would be: what operating system are you using? service pack?
