VIDA DICE and Windows 8 - Page 2

AleXc90 · Feb 3rd, 2014, 02:16

Really need full info, on how to get it up and running on windows 8.1, don't have a spare operating system or anything.
Also haven't got a clue what I need to do?

One really nice thing about this in Win 7 is the free virtual machine and xp mode which lets you run xp as a clean install within W7. Runs really well.

It might just be worth going back to W7 just for this ..... (you can swap your W8 licence for a W7 one).

Alternatively, I think (but cannot be 100%), that you can install VM ware in W8 then install a copy of xp in it (you need a copy of xp, of course).

Cheers.

I've installed VMware in W8 and it works fine.

VIDA 2014D is perfectly loaded on Win 7 (32 bit I have tried) without messing around virtual machine. Update your VIDA and it goes fine
