I was hoping to download Party Poker onto the same computer that I have Empire downloaded on. I heard there's a way to do this but I can't find it in the search area.
If someone could help me out then I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Thanks, but would you like to buy me another computer?
Seriously, though, I heard there's a way to do it on the same CPU. If anyone knows then help me out please.

You have to have not played on Empire for at least 30 days, then it should be fine to register at Party on the same computer.

I thought there was something you could change in the Windows registry to get it to work without waiting the 30 days???

The registry thing seems to no longer work. What you could do if u realyl wanted to, create a restore point before you install PP, install PP create a SN, go back to ur restore point, install Empire create a SN, reinstall PP.

The registry trick seems to no longer work. I was able to do it for both on my laptop, but I had to do one from my home and the other I had to go to an iternet cafe (coffe shop actually) and was able to do it no problem then.

or just go to the library. It's a lot simpler than trying to screw around with registry keys everywhere.
Seriously, it's not worth the trouble of tryping to understand the technobabble that will spill out if we answer.
Just go to the library and use one of their computers. It's as easy as that.

Do this and you can use the same computer:
1)Click on start, then Run. In that window that pops up, type in REGEDIT and click ok.
2)In the Registry Editor window, on the lefthand side, go to these folders :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SOFTWARE
CALCULATOR
MODE
In that MODE folder, on the righthand side, there will be a field called UCID. Right-click on UCID and delete.
3)Restart computer
4)Sign Up for PP or Emp Pkr

Some have already said this no longer works. It worked for me last Thursday, May 2 when I signed up at Eurobet.
As everyone else has said, it's better to go to the library or get a friend to let you use their computer.

A couple months ago, I had a hitch when signing up using the above method, but a second email account PLUS the above method was the fix for me. So if you have trouble with the regedit, try using a second email account.
