If you want to install a second copy of giants, just delete the giants
registry entries.
1)Go to start
2)Click on run
3)Type in regedit, then press okay
You should now get a window popping up.
On the left of the registry editor, you should see a tab called My Computer, under that, you should see a folder called HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Expand that box, you will see another folder called software - expand that
Look for a folder called "Giants citizen kabuto" or something like that, highlight that (click on it once ) then press the delete key.
Simple
I would backup the registry entry before you delete it, so you don't get any complications later on (like with the uninstall or any patch updates)
To do that, you select the giants citizen kabuto registry entry, right click and press the "export" button.
Select where you want to save the registry entry, press save.
If you ever need to put the registry entry back in, just double click the file that is exported.
You may run into a few complications, if you do, just ask and ill tell you how to fix it.
If you need anything explained better, just ask.
I am not too sure if you can join your own game from the same machine though (it has to be tested), but you CAN install 2 copies of giants.
