    Default Quick Question

    [font='Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif']Guys,

    I have checked through the guides however cant seem to find what I am looking for ?

    Basically I have a PC with 2 monitors and 2 keyboard and mice - the mrs is looking at playing WOW and therefore I was wondering rather than setup a complete new system was there a way we could use 2 logins for WOW (paid for of course) and then using the monitors in spanned or extended mode if there was a way to get the 2nd keyboard and mouse not to interfere with the 1st instance of WOW and vice versa

    I know I can run 2 instances of WOW from one machine as the PC I have got is more than upto the task

    Hope this makes sense, any suggestions (rather than buy a new PC)

    Interesting concept, to a very limited point you can. But in practacality no you can't.

    Even if you completely reassign the keys on the second WoW you still expierence key crossover issues. You might be pressing Ctrl 1 and she might be pressing Shift at the same time so what the system recieves is CTRL Shift 1. You also have the issue of mouse control. You can run multiple mice on a single computer but you only have 1 cursor. You can not have multiple cursors.
