The opposite of mint4win

Is it possible to run Win XP within Linux? My current setup is one hdd with Win XP and Linux Mint 13 - Xfce, and both are running well. I can mount the Win XP drive from Linux and view all the files.

Re: MS Win based software on startup

I added wine but it still didn't work but eventually I got it working. The problem was spaces in the folder name and it needs "\" added before the spaces. Thanks again.

Re: MS Win based software on startup

That didn't work, it does needs "Wine' to run but I'm sure wine run on startup, even though its not in the startup list.

Re: MS Win based software on startup

I have tried but when clicking 'Add' then 'Command' icon some folders do not appear. It maybe because they're hidden as I can see the folders in File Manager.

Re: Problem with Truecrypt

Have you try to open the TrueCrypt application from the "/usr/share/applications" folder? Is TC located there?

Re: Running TrueCrypt in Linux without installation

You can, download the Linux version (standard package) of TC from http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads. Extract the download, then run the extracted file. A terminal window should appear asking to 1) Install and 2) Extract. Choose 'Extract'. The terminal should tell you where the files were extracted ...
