Are the 4 components of WINS able to be combined? Or do they have to be on 4 computers?

I can't imagine parts of an application running on 4 separate computers.  I am willing to bet a moonth's salary that it all runs on one machine.

using the same license for all 15 computers is not wise because Microsoft recently updated their Windows genuine advantage program to exclude the other 14 computers from getting updates. The program then accuses you of piracy, and posts signs all over your computer that "this copy of windows may be counterfeit (including posting signs on the boot and lo gin screens)\n\nit may be sensible to go with a version of Linux, depending on the needs of the office.\n\ncheck out all the links below (1 copy of xandros can be installed on all the computers and is the most compatible with windows applications)

the game needs to support it.. for instance microsoft flight simulator allows for multiple screen hookups... GTR racing allows for a couple screens.. etc.etc.. but the end line is if the game doesnt have the extra programming to allow it... theres nothing you can do about it

It really depends on where it's looking for the Windows version.  But it's unlikely you will be able to "fool" the installer.\n\nI agree it would probably run.  The company probably wants to limit what it supports.\n\nTry google there may be a hack

you need 2 computers.

yes you can.  As long as you are using any drivers after the early 80 series drivers you can mix brands.  Only requirements are the same gpu's, which you meet.  Timings will sync to the slower one but it's still ok to do.  I recommend the 91.47 drivers from http://www.nVidia.com if you don't have it already.

You should be able to install it anywhere you want! If you install it on more than one PC tho, only register it on one PC.

Don't do it.  Use 2000 for everything. \nYeah, there might be a couple of games that play in 98 that don't work in 2000.  \nBut having 2 operating systems will drive you nuts.

One of many ways to do this:\nIf all five computers are windows XP home or XP Pro with network cards on them already - drivers properly loaded - all you need to do is purchase your hub/switch, connect them and you will have a networked LAN.  Now, from here on, there are network services you might need to connect, such has shared files, shared printers, shared internet, etc . . .\nMight be a little to lengthy to answer in this forum.  Let me point you in the right direction:\nCompusa, Best Buy, Newegg.com, cdw.com all sell network or server appliance devices that allow you to connect 5 computers and give all the services above right out of the box.  It is worth the investment to purchase on of these network appliances - they make computing life much easier and reliable - for an estimated $300 to $900 investment depending of capacity, power and speed.  My recommendations:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Submit=ENE&SubCategory=386&N=2000240386\n\nhope this starts you in the direction you are looking to go.

Yes it is possible.  If you are using a windows network, the   configuration is almost identical to that of having 2 wired computers. \n\n1. Configure all computers on the network to have the same workgroup\n\n2. Enable file and printer sharing on both systems\n\nThe configuration all depends on which operating system you are running.

I'd pick one good AV package, purchase the three licenses required and then use the same software on all three PCs.  Make sure to install the updates.

you can do that.  I'm running virtual PC with windows xp pro in my Macintosh . it works well, you can download any .exe  software (i don't recommend it for games), just a little slower but worthy. if you are planing to use virtual PC ..  be sure you  have a lot of ram ( more than 1GB )\n\nps. if you have a mac and want to use virtual pc .. please get an antivirus. (just to prevent)  i never got ads or spyware

I got this to work with 4 computers under Win XP/2000/98.   I used C&C95 with all computers using the TCP/IP networking patch (replaces THIPX32.dll), and running the C&C95.exe in windows 95 compatibility mode (for XP/2000).  Works great.

u could great a network if both machines have network cards and booth running windows xp and u would just need a crossover cable. \nand below is the guide.\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/default.mspx\n\nor if the main pc has a dvd writer u can burn it all to 1 dvd disk\nor use the pen drive between.

you can sign in with any user name you want. But if you mean can you run 2 at once ... no

What operating system?  Do you need multiple sessions, or only  one at a time?

I'd read somewhere, can't place the source, that 8 monitors is the limit on a deskop pc. That is subject to you getting 4 display card's each supporting 2 monitors.
