hi guys

i want to play a game secretly on My Work computer

i know my Boss wouldn't mind because we have a lot of free time But i don't want to leave leftovers from the game installation after i done playing

so i decided to Play in Vmware

but the Game is Two slow and laggy not like running it in non VmWare environment

the Vmware OS is XP sp1
and the main os is vista

is there a way to Play in a virtual machine in a similer or a little slower than the Main os
thanks infront



BTW i tried Raising the amount of memory for the VM didn't work
also i tried to Raise the Number of cores For the VM also didn't work

XP sp1? Maybe sp3 could make a difference, but I think it would be small.

I'm not sure if you must run it in VMware, but you could try running it in a sandbox. Installation is another matter, as many games need admin-accounts to incorporate it in the OS.
Or try DOSBox and play all those old games without much leftovers... (see Abadonia for example)

Or try this little pong game I found at Miekiemoes' blog

lol dude we were thinking about Doing a L4D2 marathon

of course the normal Computer Runs it smoothly but i don't want the people to Find out i'm Playing it
i will make a snapshot in the virtual machine
Do the marathon with those colleges then Revert to snapshot Bam nothing left in the crime scene LOL

even if i caught i don't think the Boss will do anything

Anyway.., that would be my second suggestion, but I wouldn't want you to lose your job

I don't have a third.., so good luck!
