Title: Winternals ERD Commander as virtual OS
Post by: davidnix71 on 13 May 2006, 04:52

I got a 'copy' of the 2005 version of ERD from a friend who does service/support for the local school system. I also have VPC 6.01

VPC ERD XP as 'live cd' instead of 'install' is as fast on the web through my dialup modem as Panther. No bloat. The only thing I wish was that it came with IE instead of Firefox. There are web sites with streaming music that use Active X controls that I can only fake off successfully in Panther in Virtual Win98, which is too slow to play music.

If there was some way to overclock this eMac I have, virtual 98 might work. Ram isn't a problem, there just aren't enough cpu cycles at 1.25 GHz.

Doesn't Firefox have an ActiveX plugin?

It does:

Try
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1879/

If that doesn't work.

Also, I recommend these great streaming music sites:
