Multiboxing with WoW.. Anyone done it?

DansFace · 09-19-08, 01:54 PM

This recruit a friend on warcraft has my buddy and I hooked. The problem is his computer is so damn slow it ruins it for him.

I have a 4870X2 on its way, and with that and my quad core I know my computer could run two wow clients.

I want to run dual monitors and have each client running on one screen. Is this possible? Could I assign a mouse and keyboard to each of the clients?

I have no idea what forum to post this into

Well I dont know if you could asign two mice and keyboards and have then work independently on the same PC but its easy to run two clients on a single PC on two seperate monitors... I did it for EQ.

I ran 2 cleints at once with my e4300 at 3.0 and my 8800 that I still use. It ran just fine. I think there may be software out there that lets you send commands to both windows at once, but not one that lets you use multiple input devices and assign each a window. I could be wrong on this though.
