need people to help confirm or deny the fact the windows 7 virtualpc allows the dm2 to work on 32 bit systems. everyone with windows 7 check out this link www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/My developer just called me freaking out saying hes got it working. On 1 machine and is having issues on another. need to know if people can get it working and if we can start doing write ups on it. I know its not a driver but if we can get people using the dm2 while keeping there original win 7 install. Might be alot of help for some people. So everyone thats a windows 7 user and wants a driver nowis your time to help the dmtwo.tk crew. Thanks, Blueshift2

also to add dont know much about windows virtual pc but im getting it now. An will update people from there. Im so excited.
*UPDATE*
just to make sure you need to have legit copys of windows even on the virtual install or it could disable your windows 7. CRAZZZYYYY but my friend just had it happen trying to see if it would work. So word to the wise stay legal on this one. Use xp keys off old laptop or w.e you upgraded from and if you got rid of it then you are a dumb AZZZZZ

idk how it would effect it but you can certianly try. An let us know i know virtual pc will still install i just dont know if it will make it 64 bit xp or if you could have the option to do 32bit. Would be interesting to see. but i did get it working and recognized on a couple machines few usb issues that were resolved fairly easy. WORKS COMPARED TO VMWARE. so people try it and we can go from there.

Apparently Home Premium version of 7 does not allow me to download XP mode, I would have to upgrade to professional. Thank you M$.

even though i said i'd try it i haven't been able to. my home laptop got stolen and the only other machine i have access to that has 7 is my work laptop. i won't be installing this on there. hope it's going well though. can't wait to hear the results!
