Default Sandbox Software

Looking for better less glitchy "Sandbox Software"

Sandbox software allows you to do "Virtual Installs" of software ... where the software is not installed into the residing system ... but a "sandboxed" virtual system that can be erased.

Currently I am trying "Sandboxie" ... it is very cool and can run 85% of the software I research ... and has only a few bugs and can lead to a BSOD occasionally ...

I haven't researched for a bit on this type of software and figured to ask if anyone has a better more stable "sandbox" solution.

Default Re: Sandbox Software

Microsoft has a free Virtual Machine you can download. It works pretty good for being A. Free and B. From Microsoft. It certainly meets all the basic needs. The biggest thing that pisses me off about VPC2007 is I've not been able to get USB ports to work with it. Evidently, this is a common issue and I know of no resolution for it.

VirtualBox is an open source program that I've been trying out lately. However, it seems to be very picky about working with overclocked machines. It may just be my crappy 650i cheapo mobo, but I have to set my CPU to within 10% or so of the stock FSB to get it running without locking up. That being said, USB works in it. For the most part.

There's always VMware which is an incredibly good Virtual machine. :)




If there is a final hour, let's hope for a higher power. One by one, and two by two, I have ammo, what about you?
