Sticky Post Your Desktop

Around 20 gigs. Its suprisingly small for Windows. Of course Ubuntu was like 6 and I think OSX is even less.

 

Oh cool, I've got a spare 230GB so it should be fine, thanks for the info, I'll do it tommorrow. BTW your the 2,000th post in this thread. Congrats.

 

The OS directory on my comp only uses 11GB. Im sure there are other things necessary to run it on a VM though.

 

Huzzah.

 

Actually, YOU were the 2,000th Post in the thread on the 199th Page I believe. At least, that's what it says on my comp.

How are you guys even able to get this stuff? Like Dual-Booting another OS? Don't you need the CD for that?

I know for Ubuntu you don't but I could be wrong.

 

You just burn the image to a dvd/rw and then run the install within the VM. In virtual box's case it asks for the disk and does the rest for you.

 

Or for a dual boot you just burn to a DVD and run it or mount the ISO on a virtual drive and run it.

 

Give us that wallpaper. NAO.

 

New Wallpaper i made

 

Awesomeness, no?

 

What OS is that? :S

 

No I was the first post on the 200th page and the 1,999th post in this thread, Nitros was the 2,000th.

And to dual boot you need to partition your hard disk accordingly with the OS(s) your going to install.

He is running Windows Vista, with Windows 7 (Left) and Linux Ubuntu (Right) running in a Virtual Machine.

 

...virtual machine?

I mean those icons at the bottom, what OS is that?

 

Ohh, the OS is Windows XP but the icon dock, I'm pretty sure, is Rocketdock.

And Hari/Nitrous, I VM'd W7 and had no end of trouble with drivers as I did in the Beta, my graphics card, sound card, and ethernet controller all won't install. (Pics in spoiler)

And it uses 22.2GB on a fresh install:

 

go to the website of the manufacturer of your hardware and look for windows 7 drivers. Most have them. If not, run the .exe driver files in XP Compatibility Mode.

 

I'll try that later, thanks. I'm not sure if it's because I'm running it in a VM? Idk.

 

Nope. I had similar issues.

 

flash cant handle the color black, wtf anyways its animated =) and ofcourse its orange

 

You dont actually have W7, do you....
