puntoMX Posted October 14, 2007 Author Posted October 14, 2007 I´ve tried VirtualBox and came to the conclusion that it doesn’t work 100% with DirectX/3D and that means I can not use it the way I want. I’m sorry to be too picky on these things but more and more apps, although they look 2D, use parts of the DirectX/3D; a clear example is Windows Media Player 11. I’m not the only one that found problems with this and it’s not VirtualBox his fault, it’s just how Windows XP is build up. By the way, I ran VirtualBox on XP with 2 virtual machines installed.This is another topic that is going on MSFN: http://www.msfn.org/board/virtual_software...me_t105877.htmlI’m thinking of using nLite to make a personalized XP without the DirectX/3D part and use it for basic apps only…--- EDIT ---Second thought: Why would I buy XP when the part I want is left out? I think I will go with Linux and use OpenOffice 2.x , Opera 9.x, MSN like messenger and some good Media player that supports streaming media from the net . So, back to Multi Seat Software…I’m still open for any thought by the way…
