Easy Way to Multibox 3 Active Clients on Screens Eve Online

So how the rest of Eve play using multiple clients on one PC? I'm trying to configure everything correctly, but even creating a junction file doesn't seem to do anything. I attempted to work through the Evelopedia directions, but it seems they may be out-dated possibly?
I am running windows 8.1 OS by the way. So how does everyone else make this work?

Junction file? I just load up the game twice from the launcher with each of my accounts and alt tab. (also on windows 8.1)

I must be either incredibly stupid or eve is being stupid haha... how exactly can you alt+tab and get it load the client. I always get the "We appreciate your enthusiasm blah blah, only use one account"

Do you have two different accounts or are you trying to use two toons from the same one?

Yeah, you need a separate account for each character that you want to be logged in at the same time. Two characters on the same account can not be logged in at the same time.

And it's not possible to play with a 'normal' AND a trail account at the same time. Only trail or as many normal accounts as you have.

It sounds a lot like you're trying to dual-box with a trial account. You cannot run a trial account at the same time as another account.

Yea sounds like one of them being a trial is your issue then.

Not to get off topic but why does that matter? If the client can tell if a trial account is active, why can't any client tell if two clients are running?

perhaps in a nice red.

I just open ISBoxer, select locust swarm from the dropdown, and it starts up 50 clients nice and easy. Takes about 20 seconds.
They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake.

It's not that it can't - but it's not a problem.
Trial accounts however are deliberately restricted; they're supposed to be for trying the game out after all.
Of course I believe that you're still required to have seperate installs for each account you use but perhaps I haven't read the EULA/ToS in detail for a while.

Still think it's cheating. But that's just me. There, I said it.

I guess it depends who you ask whether it's a problem.

How is having 2 accs, or 3 multiboxing?
Having a couple of accs with each open in a different client/window doesn't ever come close to that description in my mind.
Someone having 2 accounts and using a third party programme to use both accs at the same time would though.
I have 3 accs, and whatever i'm doing I have to go to every character and do it, myself.

It could, if it had a reason to.
De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

Btw, I have a single screen to do it on as well, with 2 or 3 clients running. Each about 3/4 of the screen in size and arranged diagonally from top left to bottom right.
So you're multiboxing. Your personal definition of the word is irrelevant in the wider discussion - like the people who try to win creationist arguments by redefining evolution.
If you want to be super literal, multi-boxing requires that you be using more than one physical PC (the box), and comes from the days when running two clients on one PC was not going to work due to hardware limitations. Now, however, with PC's having so much more power, running multiple clients can be done quite handily on most single PCs - I suppose the proper term woult be multi-clienting, but that's a little cumbersome to say, I think.
Edit to add:
ISBoxer (and other apps like it) do not enable you to multibox - the combination of the client and your PC's available resources are what make that possible. ISBoxer just makes multiple clients easier to manage, but it is in no way required to be a "multiboxer"
