Is it possible to use 2 accounts on same computer? : World of Warcraft General Discussions

Well the topic allmost says it all but I have 2 accounts and I would like to login on both of them, same realm but it won't let me. Crashes all the time no matter what. Windowed mode of full mode it crashes. Anyone get this to work? I know its possible.

Thanks

i do it all the time, however it was installed with a different WoW disc set on a different computer, so i dont know if you used the same wow disc set or same cdomputer or something

its posible on my comp.. only have 1 wow installed.. only problem is that it lags but i wont get disconected

Still cant log into 2 accounts, it gets an error when loading the character. Crashes. Might be an addon so I will disable all and try that later

Well I disabled all of the addons and still I keep crashing.

Here is the error I get.



I have enough free memory, I got enough memory on my vid card. I got enough space... WTF is the problem...

r u on mac or win?

Win XP SP2
Memory: 1024 DDR
CPU: 2ghz P4
VideoCard: Radeon 9600 Pro Atlantis 256DDR
Hard Drive: 160gb - 40gb free space
Virtual Memory: Unknown

If you need to know anything else tell me.

your comp is much better then my.. I can log into 3 accounts if I want here.. but I will just have lag like hell.

hmmm i dont know how to do it on win sorry im a mac person. but when it crashes does it just exit the program or do you mean it gets d/ced

yeh its odd with WoW if im running 2 accounts it lags like hell but doesnt get disconnect and the latency runs only at 160ish. Its the same if i run windows media player and WoW at the same time. But I can run 3 EQ accounts with no problems. Wonder if its WoW itself causeing it.

I smell a blizzard conspiracy cooking...

I've done it before... Maybe try installing it again.

i could never get this to work (PC, WinXP)

i have done it before so it is possible

This should workout just fine, I would try to instal WoW on another direction, for example C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft, and then have a second WoW instaled at the normal C:\Program\World of Warcraft, and open it from each directory, should work, although you will probably get abit lag with that computer
