I know you can play mir on it so its like windowed mir i used to, but it asks you to create virtual hard drives etc but i think you could use a secondary hard disk drive, btw id advise doing the update thing under file its worth it means you can drag and drop thing into the window and they will put them onto the comp also if your gona play an online game like mir like i did for mining etc then you will need to configure the network.

 

[JealY]

Yeah i'm using it for mining xD

As you can't leave mir mining when you minimise. I know I will need to setup network, I hope I can get into my second HDD/iPod I have mir installed on them both so any will do ^^

I'll do the file update thingy, so I can just drag and drop onto the desktop and it will put it on the virtual drive that it uses?

 

[i-AboD]

Yeah it will put it on the virtual drive You can change the size of your drive and the amount of memory you want the comp to use in the options i'm sure you knew that but

 

[JealY]

Yeah, I think I might need to put the virtual one on my second HDD, it's bigger ^^.

Still installing
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[i-AboD]

lol takes a while on the upside you can test any OS on the virtual comp ! You using it for EURO MiR or Private?

Which Server?

 

[JealY]

Euro, Dragon.

It's said '1 Minute remaining' for a while now xD

I was gunna put vista beta 2 on it, but I didn't. 'Cause it sucks.

 

[JealY]

Okay, it's crashed. Need to 'save state' and restart, hope this works, can't I just download a vhd with windows already on it? :P

Would make more sense.

EDIT - Saving state didn't work..... >.<

p.s - DUBBEL POST FTL?!?!?!1111ONE11!1ONEELEVEN

 

[i-AboD]

I guess you could download a vhd with files on it but where would you get it :s?

 

[JealY]

Exactly, do you have one? :brows:
