    Unhappy WoW Crashing since Cata...

    Well, I used to 5 box on the machine I'm running now (Lich King) and it ran 5 toons in WG decently.

    I scaled down to 2 accounts, and eventually quite at the end of LK - But came back now, with the intention to not run more than 2 boxes - But, starting a second instance slows wow down insanely and often crashes it - Right now I'm not using keyclone nor ISBoxer, just trying to keep 2 running.

    Anyone else had problems with the Cata client crashing when dual boxing? Again, this machine ran 5 accounts fine in LK (using both keyclone and isboxer).
    5 boxing on Chamber of Aspects, EU (Horde) and Soon on Classic.

    Have you tried updating your drivers?

    And what is the spec from your pc?

    Nope, it crashes still - now with this message:

    The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver and is unable to continue. The application must close.

    This also after I enabled DX11 in WoW per this post:

    interstingly enough, disabling dx11 it now does not crash - but my 1 box performance is much nicer in dx11 - go figure...

    After you are sure you got the latest driver for your video card try manually downloading dx11 and reinstalling it.

    Probably because the 250 GTS doesn't exactly support DX11, only DX10. This, however, may or may not make a difference
    because I can enabled DX11 on my 260 GTX and it will run fine playing solo, haven't tried it while boxing.
