Re: General UO - Computer Questions

Mary, I'm wondering if your second account is setup to have it's own access to programs... think there's a setting where you're asked if you want all users to be able to run a program. Only thing I can think of is that your other account isn't set with access and when you go to load UO it's throwing a tantrum. But I could be talking rubbish there

If you go into the UO program folder, you can run the actual exe file for the client mode itself...

IE the main UO exe acts like a batch file, it runs the auto patch, then asks for what version of the client... It then runs an exe based on your choice...

There will be two client executeables, I'm not sure what they are named off hand ATM... I think 2dclient and the 3d is something similar...

You should not even need to switch XP accts, should all work on one.

That method is considered illegal by EA. The only legal method to run two client on the saem comp is to use XP and switch between users
