Tischnoetentoet Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Hi all,I use virtual pc 2004 to test my installation, but "the real thing" I want to test is the t13-t12 moment.But everytime I change something in my installation, I have to wait anaother half an hour before it gets to the t13 moment.Is there a way to get there quicker????Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XtremeMaC Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 u can pause(save, i forgot the name of the command in vpc but there is one) your install at t-14 then resume it everytime u change something..also how many minutes does it take for u to get to t-13 mark?if its so slow change the cpu given to vpc, it'll go smoother. or switch to vmware...

likuidkewl Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 I use VPC for the bootup things, like menu's and first run batch files, but for a total install test I use VMware 4.5, just my $0.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSTeR Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 To test with minimal delay do the following:Create a dummy batch that calls your main batch and insert a "pause" before that.Let the setup run to that point a make a snapshot (in VMWare).You can now edit your main batch or perform other tasks via Shift+F10 which opens a second cmd window.To copy new files to your disk you could create an iso image with e.g. UltraIso and mount that image as a second cdrom.
