Can you please tell me what you did and how it failed? There is a quick 
setup for those things if you use the menus:

    Options - Customize EmacsW32 ...

You should use EmacsClient and only start Emacs once.

Making it easy to get started using EmacsClient is one of the main 
things the installer for Emacs+EmacsW32 is trying to help you with. 
Several shortcuts gets installed that lets you start Emacs through 
EmacsClient. There is one in the start menu and you get one in the 
SendTo menu. If you prefer working from the command line there is a 
command line script called e.cmd for this.

If you use the patched version then Emacs server gets started 
automatically through those shortcuts and or the command line scripts. 
(For the unpatched version you have to start Emacs server yourself, 
please read the Emacs manual.)

  Can you please describe this more? Exactly when does this happen?
