Title: winols drag and drop file funktion on windows8 Post by: madswp on November 25, 2012, 03:27:57 AM hello tuners
after a purchase and new installation of windows 8 i suddenly cant drag and drop files (.ols, .bin) to winols anymore. it worked perfectly in windows7 64bit. it is happening on winols 2.xx. works perfectly in tunerpro. anyone else had this problem? regards Title: Re: winols drag and drop file funktion on windows8 Post by: k0mpresd on November 25, 2012, 08:38:14 AM ive had that problem.
Title: Re: winols drag and drop file funktion on windows8 Post by: madswp on November 25, 2012, 08:49:13 AM ive had that problem. i've googled, and googled. tried running winols as administrator is the only answer i can find. i am running it as admin. if i dont, winols wont start up at all. just giving me an memory error. it would start perfectly with or without that i win7. you have a solution you want to share? regards Title: Re: winols drag and drop file funktion on windows8 Post by: k0mpresd on November 25, 2012, 08:59:19 AM my solution was to go back to 7.

isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = "TRUE" Let me know if it doesn't work as there's a few other options we can try also.

I'd love to patch out the check directly in WinOLS (it will be querying the backdoor VMware I/O port), but my assembler skills are beyond rusty!
Title: Re: winols drag and drop file funktion on windows8 Post by: madswp on January 03, 2013, 01:37:09 PM that above worked well with winols. if you others are having some troubles with other programs like me then try adding these lines:
monitor_control.virtual_rdtsc = "false" monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = "true" isolation.tools.getPtrLocation.disable = "true" isolation.tools.setPtrLocation.disable = "true" isolation.tools.setVersion.disable = "true" isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = "true" monitor_control.disable_directexec = "true" runs almost everything on vmware now |
