Can you run multiple copies of SL on vista? If so, can someone walk me thru the process? a shortcut copy with -multiple gives an error message.

That's all I have to do other than assign a different port number to each instance so my router doesn't go haywire. You may need admin privileges maybe but I can't see why.

Can you walk me through how to change the ports? Just got this machine and not very familiar with changing things

I ran multiple copies of SL on Vista by adding the -multiple switch and did not get any error messages, though there was some reduction in speed.
