Run multiple instances of Windows Phone 7 Emulator at same time

Question

I am trying to launch multiple instances of Windows Phone 7 emulator at same time according to this and this posts.

But whenever an instance is already running, the new instance launches and disappears quickly without any error message. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Opening a new instance of the emulator requires a large amount of available physical RAM (it doesn't use the swap). Close a few programs to free up some memory and try again.
