i'm sorry, online's not gonna cut it for me, i have to be able to bring this to places where there is no internet... anyone's got any other ideas?

i was going through some md5 generating / checking applications in the office a couple of weeks back and i came upon an app that not only does md5 hashes for files, but also for text. now i cant remember which app was that but if someone can point me to a similar application i'd appreciate it a lot... here's what i need: should be able to generate / check md5 hashes for files AND text should run on windows should be portable, no installation at all -or- can be installed and program folder can be run from any usb/etc p.s. so far i've only seen apps that check/generate file hashes on my last google session

I thought you could only create and mount VHDs. I honestly couldnt see how I would boot up my VHD on Windows 7 (using it) without any other software installed. Sorry, i dont think you know what i'm talking about. thanks anyway :P

yeah, i checked and i would need to set up xen server first and have that deploy stuff to a desktop, etc thanks anyway :D

Hello, I've been doing virtualization for about 3 years now, mostly for maintaining lab computers for an account where we mostly deal with security / malware / etc. It has worked fine from me for that purpose. However I also personally use the technology for testing several OSes / installing service packs or hotfixes before actually deploying them / running legacy apps or several copies of same apps at the same time. I recently have seen some videos online of a tech demo of a bare metal hypervisor running a couple of OS on a laptop, and actually being able to switch between the two (sorry but i think its citrix xendesktop). I've been able to use several VMware applications and personally prefer if something like this is available from them but previous software I used (bare metal ones) only allowed you to remotely connect to the server and view a console window of the running guest. What I'd like to be able to do is boot up the hypervisor, configure guest OSes, boot up guest OSes, and be able to switch back and forth the guests. Is there any way to do this (I prefer VMware) if so I'd love getting some assistance. PS: I'm currently downloading xendesktop and i prolly wouldnt know what to do with it Thanks in advance :D
