Windows 7 & Window mode

Hey guys so i was trying to do some searching on the forums but have yet to find the resolution to my question.

Ok so im using windows 7 64-bit ultimate. I have CoH installed on 2 different hard drives on my PC, The C:\drive and my D:\drive

I would like to know if I can make the one on C:\drive have a window mode of 1920x1200 and have my D:\drive as say like 800x600 in window mode.

Am I doing something wrong that is not allow me to do this or is there something i can put in the shortcut to allow this like -windowmode 800 600 or something like that??

Any help would be great.

im SLI with 2 Nvidia Geforce 9800GT

You don't have to have 2 separate CoH installs. You can run more than one copy of the game at the same time. You just can't have the updater itself open more than once.

To answer your question, here are shortcuts you can use, (similar to what you were thinking):
"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe" -fullscreen 0 -screen 800 600
"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe" -fullscreen 0 -screen 1920 1200

Also, you can expand on that and skip the updater with the following examples:
"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CityOfHeroes.exe" -project coh -fullscreen 0 -screen 800 600
"C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CityOfHeroes.exe" -project coh -fullscreen 0 -screen 1920 1200

I think that's right. If not, I'm sure somebody will come along and correct me. lol
