| 1128892 | 2010-08-18 09:22:00 | Save the download somewhere so that you can or once installed create a system image of your entire drive and keep it somewhere safe. Might pay to install an AV on the virtual XP as well | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1128893 | 2010-08-18 09:22:00 | installed, it wants to know where my 'xp mode package is' | jareemon (5207) | ||
| 1128894 | 2010-08-18 09:23:00 | re #11 Simply wipe the VMlite and start again. OR you can put a AV in the XP mode. VMLite is the same as other Virtual Machines, it creates a area on the drive to install other OS's. The main difference is its designed to run XP mode that MS Supply. I see by the Latest Version (www.imagef1.net.nz) that there is a new version today ( 17th in the USA) - so hopefully they have the USB sorted out -- Will be trying it tomorrow. |

| 1128899 | 2010-08-18 21:44:00 | Use VMWare then if you want USB! Does VMWare install the XP mode ? If not then read post #5 Got it, installed it, then realised I dont have a copy of xp |

| 1128900 | 2010-08-19 02:04:00 | VMLite now detects USB devices fine :banana From the USB Devices list (www.imagef1.net.nz) takes a few moments for the VM to load drivers - Then Shows in My Computer (www.imagef1.net.nz) then Drive contents (www.imagef1.net.nz) VMlite = Free XPMode From MS = Free -- good deal all round :) |
