MS Virtual PC 2004

Is it possible to run this from a portable drive.
I am looking into using my portable hard drive as my system but do not want to install Virtual PC 2004 on all the machines I may use. If this program could be ran from a portable drive then I would be able to use it with out software installation.....

Unfortunately no

No, virtulization program such as virtual PC and VMWARE can be made protable, as they use certian driver related functions that need to installed to make it work. This goes for vmware workstation and player as well.

Sorry.

qemu

I have made a Qemu + Netware + KQemu accel script.Please test it:

1-Copy Qemu files to a dir
2-Put this script on it (can be compiled to an exe)
3-Put a sub dir with open vpn driver files
4-put kqemu.sys (acceleration)
5-Test it....


#NoTrayIcon

$exefile=("qemu.exe")

If FileExists($exefile) Then

$PID = Run("sc.exe create kqemu binpath= " & Chr(34) & @ScriptDir & "\kqemu.sys" & chr(34) & " type= kernel start= auto error= normal DisplayName= kqemu", @ScriptDir,@SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)
$PID = Run("sc.exe start kqemu", "", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)
$PID = Run(@ScriptDir & "\OpenVPN\tapinstall.exe install " & @ScriptDir & "\OpenVPN\OemWin2k.inf tap0801", "", @SW_HIDE)
WinWaitActive("Instalación de hardware")
Send("c{Enter}")
ProcessWaitClose($PID)

Select
Case $CmdLine[0] = 0
$PID = Run($exefile, "", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)
Case Else
$PID = Run($exefile & " " & $CmdLineRaw, "", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)
EndSelect

$PID = Run("sc.exe stop kqemu", "", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)
$PID = Run("sc.exe delete kqemu", "", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)
$PID = Run(@ScriptDir & "\OpenVPN\tapinstall.exe remove tap0801", "", @SW_HIDE)
ProcessWaitClose($PID)

Exit

EndIf
MsgBox(0, "Error", "Error, file not found -> " & $exefile )
Exit
