Good news for TNM on "modern" computers?
Chris Allen | Posted on 04/30/09 at 16:41:02 This: http://www.crunchgear.com/2009/04/25/windows-7-reveals-xp-mode-aka-the-it-guys-wet-dream/ I'm just wondering if 64-bit Windows 7 runs (or can run) XP in 32-bit mode. This would be a heck of a lot simpler and cleaner than any of the current solutions available. |
psz | Posted on 05/01/09 at 00:31:01 Doubtful, as TNM isn't even a Windows app, really. Will be interesting to see, though. |
psz | Posted on 05/07/09 at 20:00:39 It doesn't work. Since it's not a Windows-based app with a Windows-based installer, it doesn't show up on the XP Mode Start Menu item. I may have found a way to do it... |
psz | Posted on 05/09/09 at 16:03:32 Ok, good news. It WILL work. Plugins too. The XP Mode is XP 32-bit, so DOS apps will run. To get it to work, you install TNM (or copy it over from a real machine) to the Virtual Machine. Then you have to MANUALLY create a program group in the Start Menu, and a link to TNM. Once you do this, TNM will show up on the XP Mode Start Menu. Windows-based plugins do work (Tested the Visualizer). In fact, the Windows plugins run faster than TNM itself, it seems. That's the major downside: TNM in this method is slower than running it on DosBox... But at least you have access to Windows Plugins. |
