SRL Archive - Outdated Tutorials

After a long period if inactivity ( leech activity actually ) I think is time to give back something to this community !!!
I'm using this method for while now , and it works perfectly !


Needed :
Windows Install CD ( an ISO will do just fine )

From: I Rambozo I
I suggest using Tiny XP Beast Edition instead of a regular XP installation. Tiny XP is really tiny, causing everyting to run way smoother. It also has our beloved browser "Firefox" installed, and more.
Download Torrent

VMware Player : http://www.vmware.com/download/player/player_reg.html
VMmanager : http://downloads.sourceforge.net/vmmanager/vmmanager1.02b-setup.exe?modtime=1194795557&big_mirror=0


Install the programs ( VMplayer & VMmanager )

Open VMmanager

Welcome TAB


SELECT " Create a new virtual machine "

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

PROJECT TAB


Select from the list the type of Windows KIT you have ( I recommend XP )

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

RAM TAB


Select the amount of ram allocated to the virtual machine ( Take in consideration that is a emulated windows environment and it needs a minimum of 128 Mb of RAM | I recommend 512 Mb)

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

HARD DISK TAB


Select the amount of Space allocated to the virtual machine ( Take in consideration that is a emulated windows environment and it needs a minimum of 2GB HDD-drive space | I recommend 4 GB )

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

DRIVERS TAB


In the Cd-rom group select use ISO image ( if u have a windows iso on your hdd ) or if u have a windows CD select the appropriate drive letter ) then browse to your iso file and select it

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

ETHERNET TAB


Select NAT in the first GROUP and "Don't change " in the last group
LEAVE THE REST AS DISABLED !!!

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

ADAPTERS TAB

Check the sound option if you want sound enabled on your virtual machine
Check the USB option if you want USB enabled on your virtual machine
( when you plug-in your usb pen the virtual machine recognize it too )

AND CLICK ON THE NEXT TAB

FINISH TAB


CLICK FINISH AND WAIT !!!
This may take a while because is reserving the space for your virtual system !
SO BE PATIENT

Close VMmanager (AFTER FINISH GETS TO 100% )
OPEN VM player



Select Open and browse to the location where you saved the VMmanager file




NOW IT IS A REGULAR WINDOWS INSTALLATION !!!!!

IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO INSTALL WINDOWS GOOGLE-IT


After the installation is complete you should get something like this



AND HERE IT IS "IN ACTION" ( USING SUMILION RIMMINGTON MINER )



I HOPE YOU'LL ENJOY USING THIS METHOD OF SCRIPTING ,
I HOPE IT WILL BE AS HELPFUL FOR YOU AS IT IS FOR ME .


Open for question's , and congrats

Umh.. theres like 5 VM Guides.. but urs is the best detailed and with pictures!

Ah, i don't care about VMs any more as it takes forever to setup.

does anybody hav an iso image of xp or a link to one?

um is the a set up for the older computer i get a really big lag when trying to auto.

well this is a good guide, but I been using my same comp, but the use of a lvl 115+ account and an unsigned java applet has prevented me from getting banned for almost 5 months :\

This way isn't so SMART… slows down your comp when running a little, it takes your ram/harddrive
but great guide :p

Tiny XP Beast Edition: http://mgatesphoto.com/virt/tinyxp.iso

@ everyone & dudutzu

I suggest using Tiny XP Beast Edition instead of a regular XP installation. Tiny XP is really tiny, causing everyting to run way smoother. It also has our beloved browser "Firefox" installed, and more.

You might want to change this in your nice and detailed tutorial.

Rambozo.

Another thingy; you might want to re-upload some of your images because they aren't viewing. Not like this is a "problem" or so, it just would make it all neat and tidy. (I know, I'm a perfectionist :D)

how many vm can you have running on a good (recent c2d 3.1ghz) computer before it starts lagging?

thats not the point

Hi all !

Well it is true , this is note a good method for those of you with old computers !
I can't say how much it affect the performance of a pc , I didn't had any trouble , my PC doesn't feel the VM working.At the moment i have a Core2Duo at 2.66 GHz( overclocked at 3.00 GHz) and 4 Gb of ram

I don't know how may VM you can run , depend on your PC , i had max 4


AND YES TinyXP is a very good option for the OS !

Nice! I'm going to try this! :D

Very cool!!! I never knew that you could do this. :stirthepot: Its like having 2 computers in 1 lol.

thanks this helps alot!

Thanks. Now i can do work too ^_^

looks like a nice idea…. great electricity saver

I still like having the second PC because i can monitor the autoer and work on my reg PC at the same time :)

I don't mean to be an asshole, but isn't S.M.A.R.T. like 100x easier?
You just need to put include SMART something on the script and some more codes to make the script load smart… there is a tutorial on SRL Forum i just don't know what section it's in.
And if i'm not wrong you can even load the SMART without having to load it in a script.

Good guide! Very very useful indeed

Dosent that increase the chance of getting banned?

Good guide. I tried it and it worked well. Thanks a bunch. :D

how do u install .iso files properly???it just opens the folder with daemon tools and i cant get anything installed…any help,

issamawan

edit:…nvmd it works…but how do i install tinyxp…any help with that?,

issamawan…btw thnx dude ur tut rocks!

You don't have to emulate the tinyxp.iso with daemon !!

DRIVERS TAB


In the Cd-rom group select use ISO image ( if u have a windows iso on your hdd ) or if u have a windows CD select the appropriate drive letter ) then browse to your iso file and select it

the VM emulates it in the virtual pc …

And from there on is's just a plain windows installation .
Here is a video tutorial on how to do that :D

Great guide.
