I think I will go with the VM Player and will post in the thread you suggested. I tried to follow the directions and it kept saying it couldn't find the iso. Which is not unusual for me, could never get virtual going. See you on the other side :)

This is a very interesting concept and I would like to learn it now that I know more. But to start with something completely foreign then put Windows on top of that is too unsettling for me. Wish I had known of this when I was first learning computers :) Thank you for your help, and never say...

Now this is good news indeed, that virtual can use hardware. When W7 first came out and people were trying to get Windows Mail going (and thanks to the Windows Seven Forums for this) they also tried XP virtual only to quickly abandon it due to the slowness. I didn't even realize Virtual can...

Ahhhh in English, in English :) Virtual has always been my downfall could never get it going. I ran coreinfo and it said my computer is capable: Hypervisor is present, supports amd hardware-assisted virtulatization, supports amd nested page tables (Slat) But now I am getting into Dimmie...

I remember reading about MS frowning on BartPE but thought that was smoothed over. Well then, Plan B. Is it possible to put a virtual XP or Windows 7 on WTG. And even if it can, will it run decently? And in regular virtuals there is supposed to be a trick to accessing files on the host...

So WTG is mostly for business then. However I am the tech guru for my extended family. They know just enough about computers to be dangerous. One time I brought some files on a thumb drive and their computer loaded the stick but either could not access the files but was being stubborn about...

Now that I understand the care and feeding of WTG a little better, what are some of the more useful projects it can do. I know corporate can have people take WTG with them to work on a destination PC, but that is for business. For the rest of us, what can we do with it that we may not yet...

As I did not have the SSD I created a Windows to go on a little portable exteral drive. Works very well. But how do I get apps and files on the WTG? Let's say I bring my netbook to an internet cafe. I plug in and boot from my WTG (wasn't created on the netbook). I want to check out some...
