I am looking forward to playing green and blue at the same time. So right now if I am playing on blue server and I want to open an internet browser or discord I can minimize the EQ window, open google or discord or whatever and then when done I just switch back to the EQ window and im back in game.

That said I tried today to log into the red server today while already logged into blue just to make sure it will work come this weekend. I minimized my EQ window on blue, launched EQ again and logged into red. When I tried going back to blue server window I found nothing but a black screen. Nothing I tried could get it to show me anything but a black screen so I had to go to task manager and kill EQ on both red and blue.

So how the heck do I get two servers logged in together using one computer and one monitor?

Are you playing one in fullscreen mode?

Blue was in windowed mode for sure because I do alt O and make sure it's in windowed mode so I can go to an internet browser whenever I need to to look stuff up on p99 wiki. Not sure what Red login was because I didn't alt O that one when I logged in. I just immediately minimized that screen and maximized the blue server screen to find it went black.

I wish I could figure out how to shorten my EQ screen so I could see my open documents at the bottom of the computers desktop. Then I could switch screens without minimizing and maybe that would do the trick. It used to be setup like that but I can't figure out how to get it back.
