running WinUAE simultaneous
If i start a game using WinUAE and Amikit is running simultaneous, no input(mouse, keyboard, Joystick) is possible.
Is this problem known, or must i change any settings? |

I have the same problem when running two WinUAE instances at the same time. Guess it's not supported to do that.

I used to run 2/3 instances of winuae all the time when I was renaming!
Not done it in a while though, but it worked fine a year or 2 ago! |

WinUAE having focus: all used input devices allocated in exclusive mode, nobody else can use them.

So gamers who need this can switch it on, while others can leave it off. |

Meanwhile a solution available?
It is very annoying, that i have to close Amikit before, if i want to start a game in another instance of WinUAE. As i wrote, no input(keyboard,joypad) is possible in WinUAE, if Amikit is running, mouse input is possible. While checking TOSEC disks it is really necassery to run two instances of WinUAE simultaneous(WinUAE and Amikit). It takes a lot of time to start and close Amikit again and again.

 That seems to do the trick Just started WinUAE inside Sandboxie and the normal way. In both instances the keyboard worked, so that should work (for now)
