Sorry for bump this :( I am really sorry! but
It still doesn't work cause I can't install VM tools.
maybe because I use deamon tool and not a empty disk?

you need to start-up your virtual machine first

yes I do, then I click VM > Install VM tools and then it ask me if i am sure to install, I press ok and nothing happens

Install VMTools, then click Control+Alt+Enter. It goes fullscreen.

TinyXP doesn't have the auto run feature so you have to go into my computer and double click the Tools disc (it emulates it as a CD) :)

lol yes, but when I click it I just get the files that are inside…

It's much easier if you get the rsclient to run it.

Dumpin

get the RSclient to run what?

download Runescape client and run it instead of run it on Mozilla firefox

I'm not sure you guy use what method out there but for me running 4 vm with just using rsclient with scar seem working so it up to yours to decide. my spec as below

- Scar 3.12 with repository update to SRL 5
- RsClient download from runscape side
- Run 4 vm in 1 pc

Edit: Mozilla FireFox and Thunderbird Mail removed including messenger

as i din use it for autos so remove those services and themes also.

ye ye I know, but if my rs window doesn't fit the screen scar can only see 50%, I can't auto like that

please check yourself whether you have done all this

1. install vmtools
2. change resolution 800 * 600
3. download rsclient from runescape site
