Opens in 2 WOW windows, not 1

[jmpanman]

I configured the setup the same as your instructional video 1. However, when I click Start All Games, 2 wow games load and then I get spit back out to my desktop/PwnBoxer. I can see when the games are loading that they try to load in the configuration specified but then it reverts and they are full screen versions of one another.

Assuming your running them both from the same WoW directory, that sounds like windowed mode is not enabled. Could you go into the video options of one of the games and check?

I thought pwnboxer automagically enables windowed mode but maybe it isn't some how.

Iru,
Thanks for the idea. I double checked and windowed mode is enabled/checked for both games. Same problem, the screen flickers when i click "start all games" like it's trying to split the screen, but then both games just go full screen and i end up at the desktop. I tried running game 2 on my second monitor and this also does not work, same issue. Even though the game is in windowed mode, when I launch games with PwnBoxer it seems to reset the games to full screen mode. What do I try next?
Thanks for your help,
-Matt

Try starting up WoW by itself normally, then enable windowed mode, then close wow, then run Pwnboxer. Does that change anything?

I've reset the game to windowed mode both before logging in - at the log in screen - and once logged into a toon and both ways the game resets to full screen mode when I restart the game. Even outside of using pwnboxer, my wow seems to want to reset to full window mode. Any other way to save the settings as windowed other than "Applying" or hitting "Okay" on those video screens?

Double check your settings for me...

Windowed Mode = Checked
Maximized = Unchecked
Disable Resize = Unchecked

[jmpanman]

Those are my settings exactly.

And even when you open WoW up completely by itself it goes full screen?

[jmpanman]

Correct, even w/o running PwnBoxer WoW always resets to full screen. I click 'play' and after a brief 3-4 second load time WoW is up at log-in, full screen - with windowed mode unselected again.
