Is there any way possible to install Ubuntu on the VM in windows xp? Because I don't have any more licences. Do you know any other VM program that can do that if I cant?

Obi-Wan buddy, you lost me with that one. Why would you need a virtual machine or another license to run Ubuntu?

Well, I already installed Ubuntu on the VM (Decided to try it out) so I don't need help anymore. Sry. :P

Would it not be allot slower when using the virtual pc?

You would only use the virtual machine to test suspect files, or newly downloaded files for viruses, you wouldn't run all your daily chores through the virtual machine.

VMWARE Questions...
Quote:
Ok, I have a PC which is strictly for music use. The question is: Can I use this software to create a Virtual Machine using my music computer? Can I unplug the VM when I am not using it? From the posts it is clear that this would help greatly, but what potential risks (i.e. viruses, registry changes, malware, spy ware, etc...) would I still face with regards to infecting my tangible unit? Lastly, Would the BIOS of my VM reflect everything my tangible unit includes? If so, Could programs on my tangible unit, be hidden/ deleted from the VM BIOS? Thank-you in advance-GO RANGERS! |

Just a thought. If you have not yet resolved your query, gordonheavyfoot , perhaps you might have more response if you started a new thread?

Once this is downloaded and installed, how do you run the virtual machine? Do you need to install windows and everything you want to run on the machine after its installed, etc?
EDIT: I click on the vmware shortcut on my desktop and it opens my web browser with the port in the address bar but it says "Unable to connect". I honestly have no idea what to do lol Last edited by dangermouz; 10-27-2008 at 12:48 AM.. |

hi all
I use virtual machines for OS deployment, update testing, software testing, OS trials and testing etc etc a Windows Server 2003 VM with Windows Deployment Services configured is an excellent way to reinstall operating systems over a LAN cable without user input so if anyone needs helps on setting up a VM give me a shout |

As an aside, you guys might want to look into sandboxing within your primary OS. You don't need a VM to sandbox a web browser, or any other application. Sandboxie is a neat little app that can do this.

VMWare can be used to install any OS used it in one of my classes in college to teach us how to install/use older OS's

I've always just used VirtualPC, but I'm just too cool sometimes.
VMWare is pretty high level stuff compared to VPC, imo... too many buttons O_O |

One good use of virtualization is trying out a slipstreamed CD before burning to see if it works or trying out a linux distro on top of windows. DSL works well on a VM.

I'm trying to play bluray discs through the powerdvd program I got with my drive.
Basically I don't want to pay for the PowerDVD 9 Ultra just yet (needed for windows 7), I was hoping to run the powerdvd 7 w/bluray in a virtual machine running xp or vista. I have found that vista recognises the BD-ROM and XP doesn't, so probably vista. Is there any way to use the full features of my graphics card? Instead of it virtualizing it's own graphics chip. I'm currently using Vmware Player. Many thanks! |
