[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	yup did that, tried turning uac off, ran as admin, installed as admin, put everything under /c, tried running it on service pack 2, turned off all firewalls and antivirus, and still says cant run 2 instances of ac at once... looked through all the other posts here and on the dual client site and there is no real step by step how to on this subject. -----signature----- regulater, clawstorm, structure knight "You are that guy at pizza hut always making funnies when you should be making pizza"

	Okies first thing I say is.. YMMV I installed AC outside of program files, in fact I just took "program Files" off the install path when I installed it. I installed Dual Client into the AC directory. I installed Decal into its own subdirectory off of c: I installed a couple plugins to a subdir off of c called Plugins. I don't run as Administrator I still have UAC I "think" (I'm known to be insane) that if ACDC is outside of the AC directory Vista says nooooo don't touch that program I'm keeping it safe! Installing them all with each other seems to bypass this problem. I run ZoneAlarm and AVG, they seem to work well for me. Admittedly I don't play on my laptop much, but I sometimes fire it up to juggle account contents easier. This is how I did it, it works for me. Again YMMV, but what can it hurt to try? wubbie - look at the propeller on my tech beanie spin. -----signature----- WARLORD OF THINGS YOU CAN FOLD, SPINDLE AND MUTILATE 126th er 140th er 160th er 190ish er 215 er 265ish er 275th Level Tradeskill Main STOP LAUGHING, I MAKE GIMPED LOOK HAWT!

	Did you set up the paths after you copied everything to them? In other words, is ACDC still only looking at one directory, or did you set them all in there? -----signature----- Proud member of The Knights of Fortune Mr Adventure - Lil' Pew - Da Noob - Qar Yaroz - Yanno http://www.fortunesway.com

	Most of the time, these problems arise because people choose "Advanced Setup" and don't know how to properly configure it after that. If you didn't do this, then I don't know what else you could have done to have this problem. The error message you are getting is a result of 1 of 2 things: 1) You don't have 2 paths configured and installed correctly. 2) ACDualClient is having difficulties injecting into AC and patching the client to allow more than 1 to run. -----signature-----
