I was just wondering if it is at all possible to "clone" a program so you can run more than 1 instance of it. Any ideas?

hi C_stone6
"...so you can run more than 1 instance of it."
seems to me that the prog only work one time !

first solution; buy it! :rolleyes:

boring remedy:
do a ghost image of your system without the prog.
install and use it.
after use the prog,restore the system and install the prog again !

Thank you for your help jorel. I would like to try the "ghost image" idea if you would explain to me step by step how to do it. And just in case I was not totally clear on my first question, what I want to do is to run 2 instances of a program side by side so I can work on two different things at the same time(if that makes anymore sense than the last time).

What sort of program?
Many WILL allow you to run to instances (more common than not, I thought).

Others are MDI (Multiple Document Interface) compliant, and allow you to have multiple document open and cascaded/tiled in the applications window space.

Thanx for both of your help Jorel and LTR12101B, I will look over that "tutorial" and to answer your question LTR12101B the program is called DC++.

Many too many win32 applications allow running multiple instances of it- normally only under true multitasking environment (that is no 9X/ME).

Try using VMWare or VNC... To run a second OS in a window, then you can run a second instance. Or go back to OS2/Warp!

How to run multiple instances of whatever program you want in Win XP

Had the same problem getting dc++ running in two instances. Different hubs, different share rules, so it was a pain in the *ss. One solution I found is to install dc++ in two different locations. Make a shortcut for each of the locations on my desktop(or wherever..)
Then, run the first instance the normal way, by double clicking it. After that you rightclick the other shortcut and select the "Run as.."-option.. this'll let you run a second application for each of the users available on your comp. If you're the single user the only available other user will most likely be Administrator, just enter your password and weee... up pops another instance of dc++ :cool:
