virtual machine who runs one in my workshop my main pc is windows7 but some of the programes i use will only work with xp is there sotware out there that will allow me to run a virual machine type thing ie running xp on my windows7 operating system.

VMWare............. VMware United Kingdom - Virtualization Software for Desktops (http://www.vmware.com/uk/)

Will run just about everything you need it to do, some programs will not run in virtual environment so maybe best to list what you plan to install, I have about 28 virtual machines

lexia, autocom, and all the older programes that are xp based.

I run almost everything in vmware. Some programs need a "workaround" so the will open. Diagbox is very hard to get to install, I installed it in virtualbox then imported it to vmware to get it to work.

Me too :) and use timestamp so everytime boot

Vmware works but it is still a slap to get in and out of it but at least one can go that way

I use original VMware from Microsoft to use ETKA 7.3 and ELSA on my laptop with Windows 7 x64.

i use vmware is good is software conflicts but you will need at least a dual core lap top and good memory or it will run really slow

Using VMWare with XP SP3 +

isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = "TRUE"
in the config file. It makes that soft do not recognize that you're using virtual machine.

hi i want to know if this tip is tested with "Nyo2012" and
where is this config file? help please! thanks

The config file you asking for is in the folder where you set a path for your system installation with extension .vmx

Haven't tested it with Nyo, give it a try and check ;).
