maths cd users

Hi
I was under the impression from reading this forum that as long as I only wanted to use the maths cd on one computer I could use it for more than one child. I have twin boys sitting 11+ and would also like to look at the questions myself without influencing their scores yet it seems to be set up for one user only.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

It depends on your computer set up.

If you have a Windows based computer with multiple user accounts (eg mum, dad, son1, son2, daughter1) then each user will have their own score card. If you use one login and try and have 2 users then their scores will be merged into one score sheet.

To set up multiple user account on Windows XP for instance:

Click on START
Click on CONTROL PANEL
Click on USER ACCOUNTS
Click on CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT(S) .....(twin1, twin2)

Then the next time you switch on your machine each twin will be able to login (password not necessary) into their own area and invoke this or any software. On this software they will have their own score cards.
