The batch file I posted does serial rendering unattended.

It does, however, support multiple instances.  (In the Options menu, uncheck
Keep Single Instance.)  Whether it /loads/ multiple instances I cannot answer,
since my technical knowledge of Windows stalled in 1995.  With POV-Ray 3.7's SMP
support, though, it shouldn't matter whether your renders are serial or
parallel.

You most certainly can do that on the command line.  Have you tried the +W and
+H options?
