you shouldn't need to copy/paste the wow folders (some people do, but it's for performance in some cases)
Thanks buddy! I had a session of "try it and see what happens" as described below...

I was going to hammer my Shammy duo this evening but decided to fire up the coffee pot and get to grips with the Maximizer settings. I was completely stumped as to why my display was corrupted, it looked like eight or nine WoW clients stacked on top of each other although only one was actually active. Keyclone was dutifully telling me "no region available" regardless of how much I fiddled with resolutions, positions etc and then I remembered a top tip I read somewhere: scrub everything, check the FAQ's and start again.

Yup, I had "pointed" Keyclone to the launcher and not the Wow.exe. I guess muppets come in all shapes and sizes...

So, now that I have fixed it I have a brilliant "main" screen with a dinky little "secondary" screen tucked in the top left hand corner of my T.V. This leaves me with a fresh problem...the "secondary" screen looks lonely up there. I think its time to invest in a third and fourth account!

Observations on actually playing whilst dual-boxing:

1) It can be tricky dragging my secondary character around scenery and obstacles. I have seen boxers using direct control of their alts and will need to investigate this as it seems to be a better method especially if I add more accounts to the mix.

2) Picking up/turning in quests can be a painful process. I know I read a macro system somewhere about picking up on the main then sharing with the alts. I will dig up the FAQ and add that to my set-up.

3) People react in very strange ways when they see you boxing. Some are friendly and inquisitive (I pointed three players to this site today) and others are very hostile. I remained polite even when confronted with abusive/trollish players...no point getting caught up in an argument when theres mobs to be killed

4) With two characters mobs die rapidly...I cant wait to jump up to four!

Keyclone has created a monster...mwuhahah!
