Hey. I just got a new computer and I kind of stole the internet lan cord from my brothers computer, so I've been having to share with him. Been trying to find ways around it so we can both play at the same time. The computer I got can easily play two games on ultra graphics and keep both at 60 frames, it's pretty awesome.

I just got the idea today after my morning bowl that maybe I could hook up a second monitor to my computer, and have a set up with each monitor being controlled by a different mouse and keyboard. Maybe a different operating system. I guess I would need one for full screen games eh?

I would like to try and avoid VMWare and stuff, however it's the only way I can think of possibly being able to do it. Would just hurt my comp speeds.


Any ideas?

Two mice connected to one computer, only controls 1 cursor for the system. 1 system can only run 1 true OS at a time.

You'll have to use VM. Here's and example how to give the VM dedicated peripherals. http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsi...Id=1033435

Well i guess you could use VMware to run 2 OS's at the same time but it's a pain in the ass to get your graphics card to work with VMware. But keep in mind that you would need another system to control 2 mouses and 2 keyboard at the same time. One thing you could research is using an laptop or any other machine and connect 1 mouse and keyboard to that and "Bridge" it over to the VMware machine.

There's no way that you can do this natively under Windows, sorry OP. Only options are VMs, and ones that support graphic hardware acceleration.
