As title really.

I've got two monitors and sometimes want to have two steam games running full screen at the same time e.g. if i'm mining on Eve and want to play a bit of Plants v Zombies while I'm waiting on my ship to fill up.

Will this cause any problems with my account?
 
Try it and see :p

*edit*

I just opened 4 Steam games without issue.

You can do it but I was just wondering whether it's against the terms of use and could result in your account being banned.

I'm at work just now so I can't check on the Steam site.
 
iirc what steam has problems with is multiple connections, so you could run every single game on your steam account from one computer, but the moment you try to connect with a different computer it'll stop you.

In short, it should be fine.
 
run plants vs zombies in window mode (it's in the game options)

it looks way better in a window anyway :)
