Virtual Drive

Hi,
Im on XP HOME, how do I create a virtual drive on my hard disk for FS2004?

All good advice welcome,

vhd support is not native to XP but you can try following this guide and see how it works.

Unable

Hi,
Server install Unable on XP as you surmised, thanks all the same....any other thoughts..?

Virtual Drive by FastStone?
Or you can try using Alcohol 120% to make an image of the disks, then use daemon tools to mount.

Do you mean run it off a virtual machine and not virtual drive? Virtual drive is like a fake CD/DVD/HDD.. so if it can run as a live image that'd be fine, but virtual machine would let you install/load up another OS while inside xp

Clarify

Hi
Your dealing with a newbie as far as this project is concerned. The faststone ran into a conflict with my trucrypt software I think...during attempted installation the faststone loading was unable to complete.

To clarify I want to run my programe off of a virtual drive which Im supposed to create using my existing hard drive...now is this possible and what software can I use to setup the virtual drive. Again its not a virtual machine issue its a virtual drive I need to install without the use of CD or DVD.

Ill take a look at 120 and daemon option, but Im still thinking that a confilct may occur here to as my HD is trucrypted...? Any thoughts on that?

Thank you so far.

Just remembered a program I've used before to manipulate VHD's on an OS without native VHD support.

Try Gizmo Central found here and see how that works out on XP home.

MagicDisc is what I use for iso images that I refuse to burn. Unless you have a supercomputer I would not suggest running a virtual machine for FS.
