Excellent Mike. So to save on RAM (since that's my major issue with this machine) i can write a little batch file in dos (remember DOS anyone?) to net stop the version i'm finished with and net start the version i want to switch to. Sounds pretty simple. that way there's only one version of CF running at any moment.
Where there are two versions running simultaneously, how does the system decide which files to send to the CF8 service and which to send to CF7?
