Virtual operating system Windows 7

Under understanding virtual machine(Virtual Machine) hardware security guest platform (guest platform), which controls the programs for the guest platform and host platform features.

Also, a virtual machine can virtualize a platform, building on it independent, isolated medium for robotic operating systems and programs. Virtual machine for Windows 7 - let's take a look at popular programs.

In a simple way, a virtual machine gives the ability to one real, physical computer, create a sprinkling of virtual computers, install them with different operating systems, programs, etc.

In a wide range of technologies, technology has come from the world of server infrastructure, virtual machines are victorious in order to create maximum server occupancy and change downtime.

Virtual machines are victorious for the selection of such orders, such as:

    Optimization of the selection of server resources

    Information protection, as well as the exchange of opportunities for such programs, is the so-called idea of ​​a sandbox.

    Follow-up of the new computer architecture or software.

    Emulation of various computer architectures (for example, for emulation game console PlayStation type Sony).

    Testing and improving software security.

We propagate your respect a short look the most popular virtualization programs.

Virtual machine for Windows 7: Virtual Box

Program for virtualization by Oracle, for operating systems Linux, Mac OS X, MS Windows, etc. The program is popular and below we can not see everything, but only її key advantages:

Bezshtovnіst.

Cross-platform.

Support for 64-bit guest systems on 32-bit host platforms. For which, in the host platform, you can use virtualization technology at the processor level.

Support for audio equipment and other types of mesh interchange.

Possibility of creating a lancet of backup stations (backups), to which you can turn in case of problems from the guest system.

Russian interface.

Important! There are no shortcomings of the program, but for the sake of objectivity, the assessment should also be guessed about them - VirtualBox is badly summ_sna with OS Win 95/98 (it seems that the system works correctly) and Mac OS X (problems with sound).

Like Bachimo, short programs are not the same as nominal.

Virtual machine for Windows 7: Xen


Monitor of virtual machines (hypervisor) exit code(GPL license).

With the technology of paravirtualization (PV mode), Xen allows you to achieve even higher productivity for the simulation of hardware platforms.

The peculiarity of PV-mode is the presence of the computer's initial start-up time (imitation of the BIOS-code, start-up) and the kernel of the guest OS is launched immediately in the required mode for the command of the main programs.

Signify that Xen can be compared with software security of corporate peers through yoga bugs functionality.

Advantages:

Bezshtovnіst.

Cross-platform.

The high productivity of running virtual machines is close to the productivity of real systems.

Possibility of migrating virtual machines that work between physical hosts.

A high step to support the emulsion.

Missing programs, maybe, one - її vydnosna foldability, comparable with similar software of other companies.

Virtual machine for Windows 7: Virtual PC


View of the cob given program It was developed by Connetix for Mac OS, back in 1997. After 4 years, a light version for Windows was released.

In 2003, the rights to the program were given to Microsoft Corporation, and in 2006 the program became free of charge. Nadali Virtual PC did not develop and at the current moment to revenge the functionality of 2007 rock.

Advantages:

Bezkoshtovna.

Simple, handy interface.

Noodles:

The program works only in the middle of Windows, but is not necessary with Windows 8 and beyond.

Program

Virtualization is a general term that captures the abstraction of resources in rich aspects of calculation. Deyakі the most characteristic butts of virtualization are directed lower. In its own way, a virtual machine is sharpened, as it appears for the "guest" operating system as a hardware. However, it is actually software-hardened, as if it is simulating the software security of the host system. This simulation can be sufficient enough for the guest system drivers to work stably. With victorious paravirtualization, the virtual machine does not simulate hardware security, but replaces it with a victorious API.

Tweaked terms:

  • Host system (host)- a computer on which the virtualization platform works
  • Gostova operating system - operating system, running in the middle of a virtual machine
  • Virtual machine, virtual environment- Virtualization of the computer, in which the guest operating system and programs can be launched. At the same time, a few virtual machines can be launched
  • virtual addendum- a virtual machine with a front-mounted guest operating system and additionally adjusted add-ons, aimed at achieving a specific task

With this help, I will tell you about the new possibilities of virtualization of the Windows 7 operating system. Virtual PC Windowsє a new optional component of the system, which can be used to hack for migration and support the system of programs in Windows 7, which can be used in old operating systems. This component is available for the hour of the package update.

Virtual PC Windows provides an easy way to Windows management XP that support the summation of addenda, yakі may cherubate itself on your operating system. You can vicorate for typing up to virtual Windows image XP, which is ready for that, to ensure that the necessary summaries are filled with supplements. You can select Windows XP Mode and Windows 7 to run programs directly from Windows 7, if the programs are, in principle, installed on a virtual Windows machines xp. Windows Mode XP Mode is available on Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 7 Ultimate.

Under the Windows 7 operating system, Windows Virtual PC can also be upgraded to other 32-bit operating systems. And to herself:

  • Windows XP – available only with Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) Professional;
  • Windows Vista- support for Windows Vista Enterprise and Windows Vista Ultimate;
  • Windows 7 - supported by Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 7 Ultimate;

With this help, I will describe some of the Virtual PC options - the installation of Windows XP Mode, as well as the installation of another operating system. To ensure the care of the operating system, virtual machines are installed in both modes. Windows XP Mode more swedish way, because vin transfer less krokiv ta zusil. After that, as a test medium of the operating system will be installed, it is peaceful to look at key features Windows Virtual PC - such as a collection of physical resources: USB add-ons, printers and hard disks.

Дії before installation

For Windows installation Virtual PC needs to be upgraded to install a new system update. Before that, how to install Windows Virtual PC, it is necessary to take a look at the possibilities, how you can determine how you can run Windows Virtual PC on your computer. Windows Virtual PC requires Windows 7 virtualization hardware support. The virtualization option is available for processors that enable the virtualization option - and in itself, processors with Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) and AMD Virtualization Technology (AMD-V), as well as processors with VIA. You can turn on the hardware support for virtualization using the additional BIOS. For more detailed information How to use the hardware virtualization processor is the best way to visit the website of the hardware security guide.

In order to find out what hardware virtualization is supported in Intel processors, you need to step on:

  1. Download, install and run the Intel Processor Identification Utility;
  2. Go to the "CPU Technologies" tab and read the value in the "Intel Virtualization Technology" field

In order to recognize what hardware virtualization is supported in AMD processors you need to download, install and run the AMD Virtualization Compatibility Check Utility

This section of the guide describes the process of installing Windows Virtual PC, as well as installing the virtual machine itself. Dodatkova configuration and technical specifications in stocks.

Installed Windows Virtual PC

After installing Windows Virtual PC, you need to install a virtual machine. You can tweak Windows XP Mode or create your own virtual machine. If you are planning to hack Windows XP, you can take advantage of the Windows XP Mode hacking installation package, which was discussed in the “Before Him, How to Start” distribution

Trochs about integration components

The integration components simplify the virtual machine's choice, improving the interaction between physical resources and the virtual machine's middle. The stench is automatically installed at once from Windows XP Mode. For other operating systems, it is necessary to install them manually after the operating system is installed. Integration components are included to Windows Virtual PC and provide access to such resources:

Installed Windows XP Mode

Installation process:

Uvaga

  • Do not uninstall the package at that time, as you will no longer win the yogo. If you see yoga, then the package Windows component XP Mode will no longer be available, and you may spend important data. Uninstalling the package sees the virtual machine, and also grants access to the data that was saved from the virtual machine;
  • Microsoft is committed to keeping an archived copy Windows package XP Mode (WindowsXPMode_xx-XX.exe, de xx-xx is my system) as a backup, for good measure, so you happen to use the Windows XP Mode environment. For example, you can burn the .exe file to a CD or DVD disc. It is highly recommended that you have an archived copy, because Windows XP Mode can have 2 virtual copies hard drive- Batkiv virtual hard disk and differential disk. The differential disc cannot be beaten without the father. If the Batkivsky disk will be removed or poshkodzhenno, then it should be updated using Windows XP Mode. In any case, you need to vikoristovuvat the same Batkiv hard disk, whichever vikoristy earlier, so I will re-install Windows XP Mode

The installation process looks like this:

After you install Windows XP Mode, you may want to create a new entry for that component. If you create cloud records, you will need to add them to the Remote Desktop User and Administrators groups. Cloud records can be either domain or local.

Installing a virtual machine manually

You can tweak this method, if you don't want to, so that your guest system will be Windows XP. I'll tell you how you can create a virtual machine and install a guest operating system, which you plan to fix with Virtual PC. For the creation of a virtual machine, you can use the master of the creation of virtual machines. Meister will help you configure the virtual machine with basic fittings, so you can tweak the way you need to tweak the virtual machine. For example, it is possible to show the sing of the memory, like a virtual machine. Number of people seen operational memory may be the same as you would see on a physical computer. It is necessary to secure the virtual machine with a sufficient amount of memory so that it can be easily handled by the operating system and the programs installed on it. Also, pay attention to those who, by the way, you install the guest operating system. For example, to install an operating system, you can win merging server for installation or physical CD or DVD drive, in which just put installation disk from the system. If you are installing a guest operating system supported by Virtual PC, you will need to install the integration component package after installation.

Close the virtual machine

Until then, how do you know how to get out of a virtual machine, maybe you want to find out how you can get out of a virtual machine. If you shut down the virtual machine, you can go into deep sleep mode, complete the work or wake up. If the virtual machine enters the deep sleep mode, it does not have a subsequent system attack, it seems that this option is richer, lower, and more complete.

Uvaga

When you open a virtual machine, Windows Virtual PC takes care of memory and processor resources. Trivality of the hour, which wins for the virtual machine to lie down, in order, by which method you її closed at the time of the rest of the session. So may the value of the memory, as you saw the hour of the creation of a virtual machine. By the way, when you press the "Close" button on the virtual machine, the Windows XP Mode virtual machine switches to the deep sleep mode and prompts you to select the same mode for other virtual machines. You can change this option yourself.

Change the closing of the virtual machine for locking

Vimknennya virtual machine

  1. At the virtual machine press Ctrl+Alt+Del. Or you can press a combination of keys CTRL+ALT+END.
  2. At the guest's operating system, which appeared, click on " shut down».
  3. The operating system will be disabled, the resources that are supported by it will be rotated by the host system.

Respect! If you want the installed security software to appear on the desktop of the operating system, you need to get out of the public record and only then you can shut down the virtual machine.

Like you victorious songs Windows versions XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 in a virtual machine, then you will be able to access the program directly from the desktop on the host computer if the program is installed in the virtual machine. You can run your Windows 7 host machines with all the necessary programs, unique problems, which can be blamed for that failure, as the stench is not the same with the host operating system.

Business programs that run on the Windows XP operating system are miraculously suitable for testing this capability. However, Windows Virtual PC does not support programs that render stereo sound or 3D graphics. Tse means that it is impossible to launch programs, for example, games, in a given moment.

USB connection for a virtual machine.

Windows Virtual PC supports USB add-on version 2.0, and you can also add it later, or write from the add-on to a virtual machine. The method, which you will zastosovuvatimete, is to lie down in order, I will add a USB, which will win. In addition, as the integration components are installed and the stench is allowed, the guest operating system, the memory device and the smart card reader device are automatically added to the virtual machines and a physical computer. Do not need addendums for these types of attachments. For other types, it is possible to use the links attached to the virtual machine. For example, you can attach the following types of USB attachments:

  • digital cameras;
  • USB-CD drive;
  • MP3 players;
  • Phone / PDA / mobile device;
  • Webcams/video cameras;
  • Rootless mesh adapters.

Friend from virtual machine

Useful methods to make the printer available on a virtual machine. On the way, how can you hack, add a factor: an available printer driver on Windows 7 and connect the printer locally or through a network. You can also tweak the XPS format so that the computer supports this method.

Local USB printer wiki

Respect! The best way to do this is to have drivers available on the offending system - the Windows 7 host system and the guest operating system. It is necessary to go through a few steps to install the printer on the virtual machine. Steps are allowed, as you were already working on the printers, victorious to the host operating system.

Check that the printer is enabled and available for driver installation. For example, you can install the drivers on a new vicorist CD.

  1. Connect the printer to the virtual machine. For whom, in the virtual machine, type " USB", and then on " Im'ya_I will add Spilniy access».
  2. Install the printer driver on the guest operating system. You can quickly install the driver via the Internet or download a CD.
  3. View the printer from the virtual machine. For this virtual machine, press " USB", and then on " Im'ya_I'll add Zvіlniti».
  4. Restart the virtual machine. For this virtual machine window, click on " Diya", and then on " Rezavantage».
  5. The printer will be available on both systems, both on the host and on the guest.

If you are overwriting a Windows XP guest system, you will need to manually install the printer driver to be overwritten.

Friend from virtual machine

  1. Go to the virtual machine and go to physical record, which is necessary (you log in automatically, as the option is set, I will save the password).
  2. Try this:
    a) On the desktop at the virtual machine it is pressed right button on file and select from context menu option " Druk»
    b) Run the program by giving the other option and winning the other command.
  3. Must have printers that are available on the virtual machine, or on the list of printers. We select the desired printer and click on the OK button

You can also tag another XPS document in your virtual program or virtual session to save the hacked file on the host, and then you can tag the file, tag the printer, and install it on the host computer. This option is only correct if the driver is not available for the guest operating system or you do not want to install it on the printer. Which method requires the following configuration:

  • Microsoft XPS Essentials Pack installations on the guest operating system. Microsoft XPS Essentials
    Pack can be obtained from this request: Windows Hardware Developer Central site.
  • The virtual machine is configured and can access disks and partitions on the host computer, so you can just save the file machines are required install integration components).
  • A working printer is to blame for the installation on the host operating system.

A virtual machine (VM) is just one computer running on a desktop. So, at the end, it starts up like another (virtual) monitor, and another computer starts up.

Tsey computer has its own virtual possession And on it you can install a right operating system (OS), for example, virtual Windows. On such a computer, you can completely practice and even more appropriate this topic.

Why can you win "virtuals"

  • for testing or learning in other operating systems (Windows, Linux, MacOS, etc.)
  • software distribution for other operating systems
  • practice at different missions with the same software sharpening
  • for anonymity

I think you can come up with ways to zastosuvannya, first, what fell on my mind. For example, on a large robot, I could not put the necessary programs on the computer, even if it was an administrator. Ce Bulo was tied to safety and licensed meals. Then I installed my own virtual machine, installed Windows and all the necessary programs on it, and in no time worked. Vecheri having written down the image on the old one hard drive and nіs іz myself home.

Before that, the working Internet will be hacked for security, but also access to another provider. I'm putting a friend merezhnu card and nalashtuvav її at the virtual machine. Therefore, the “primary” Windows didn’t have drivers installed on it, and the virtual medium had a Swiss Internet through it.

The virtual hard disk is stored in one file, and all data can be encrypted. So, if you want to come to you without a drink, then you can just close the virtual operating system and the browser window and Excel on your computer, you won’t see anything

How to use virtual machines for Windows

The most popular and vikoristovuyutsya:

  • Oracle VM VirtualBox - cost-free, including practically everything that is needed for a peppery crust
  • Hyper-V - free of charge, introduced in Windows 8/8.1/10 Pro versions and Enterprise
  • – paid, maximum functionality, for professional retailers

VMware to file a proprietary software package, at a cost of a lot, and a premium for commercial use. For the purposes described by me, I need to stitch the first two. And if you can download torrents, you can install yoga. The principle of robotics and adjustment plus / minus the same.

How to install a virtual machine on VirtualBox

The whole process takes place in a few simple steps:

  • Get and install VirtualBox
  • Create a VM for the assistance of the master
  • Connect the current image with the operating system
  • Install the OS like your original computer

Vlasne, I took a video:

To download the program, please click here:

Under the hour of installation, splitting will be completed at the end of the day with a request for the installation of additional drivers. virtual buildings, Required to wait for everything.

At the main window of the program, the button “Create” is pressed, and it is consumed by the master of virtual machines. To access all the options, click on the "Expert mode" button:

Im'ya: whatever the name

Type: select the possible operating system (Windows, Linux, BSD, etc.)

Version: Exact OS version (sim, ten, ).

The list may have a choice of x64 versions, as there is no hardware virtualization, but it will be lower.

Working memory

Memory capacity - that operational memory, which will be available in virtual Windows. For example, since 8 GB of RAM is installed in the computer, up to 4 GB can be entered for the VM. І after the launch of the VM cі 4 gigabytes will appear on your Windows, because. vikoristovuvatimutsya virtual OS. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the obsyags, appearing from such mirkuvan:

  • For Windows 7/8/10 x86, less than 1 GB of memory is required, and for more, less normal work vid 2 GB
  • For Windows x64, you need 2 GB of memory, but everything seems to be broken - I want 3 GB

Obviously, we choose such an obsyag virtual memory so that the installed virtual Windows was installed, and your Windows also lost the required download. In case you have 4 gigabytes of memory, then we put 1024MB here, and if you have 8GB, then we choose 3000-4000 megabytes here.

hard drive

I suspect that you don’t have a virtual hard disk, so let’s move on to this creation on the step-down hard drive:

First important - " Roztashuvannya". Change the folder on the disk, more space. For example, the rich disk C: is not big enough for one operating system, and the disk D: is for other files. If you have an axis like this, then select it there and create a folder on drive D:

Rozmir- for the Windows family, set it to 40 GB.

Type- zalishaєmo VDI. It is unlikely that you will ever connect this “disk” to other virtual systems.

Save Format- "Dynamic". With any expansion of the file of such a disk, it will grow in the world of its storage. If you put “Fixing”, then all 40 GB will immediately take up space on disk D: for example.

On whom the creation of the virtual machine is completed.

Setting up VM VirtualBox

As soon as you can run a virtual machine, but empty, without an operating system. You need to insert a disk into the virtual disk drive. As an established “DVD-disk”, an ISO-image appears, the same one that we can burn on a real DVD or on a USB flash drive.

We go into the setup of our VM on the tab "Wear":

Click on the “drive” with the values ​​“Empty”, then after the DVD-disk icon and select it in the “Select Image” menu optical disc…”, de і vazuєmo way to iso-image. And if there is a physical disk with the installation, just insert it into the drive and check the "Live CD / DVD" box. It is important that it is necessary to install that version, as you chose at the stage of the machine's creation, especially the size.

Now everything is ready to start the virtual machine. Press the "Start" button

Get excited about the virtual computer and such a process of installing Windows, yakbi ve zrobili on your computer or laptop. After you install Windows, you start the VM and your virtual Windows will be taken care of.

Host key

An important detail is the host key. If you click on the window of the virtual machine, then all the “respect” is to press on the buttons of the keyboard and move the bears to the virtual machine (guest operating system). Sob “forgive” Claudia and Misha, tobto. turn them to right Windows, press as necessary right Ctrl. This button can be changed at the settings. Before speech, the exchange buffer of your system and virtual, like bi, blatant. So, if you copy the text to the buffer on a real computer, then you can paste it in a virtual one, manually.

Hardware virtualization

So that the VM was made faster and faster, and also that it was possible to install 64-bit (x64) versions of operating systems, if hardware virtualization was enabled. Itself tsya pіdtrimka vbudovana at the processor and at all current processors won є (maybe not only for old-time dual-cores and elders).

The technologies are called Intel VT-x and VT-d (for expensive processors) and AMD-V. The sense is that the commands are sent directly to the processor, bypassing the operating system drivers. Hardware virtualization is enabled in the VM settings on the " System -> Priskorennya»

But you can’t make money, because the option for locking is included in the BIOS with a security method. You may see a pardon "Functions of hardware virtualization VT-x/AMD-V enabled, but not functional". Therefore, we need to re-engineer the computer

This post has a mova about a virtual machine VMware Workstation, about those de її download, as well as how to install a virtual machine on windows 7. Let's talk about the cob - what is a virtual machine? Perhaps you know, but once again tell me not to hedge anything. Having installed a virtual machine on Windows 7, you will be able to install one more operating system, in the middle of it. And that means that if you are allowed to use Linux, then you won’t have to reinstall your computer in order to change the operating system. It will be enough to click on the program itself and in it run the OS you need, and if necessary, switch between them.
I download the virtual machine itself, I think it’s not varto torturing you, let’s send a message to the FD, rather I’ll give a message to download the virtual machine via torrent. You will capture the archives, and in the middle of the new one there is a torrent file.

After the download has completed, you will have a VMware Workstation v8.0.1 folder, in the middle of which there will be installation files.
1. Run VMware-workstation-full-8.0.1-528992.exe Once the installation is complete, do not rush to open the program.
2. Go to the Russian folder and run the VMware-Workstation-8.0.1+build-528992-ua-RU-04.12.2011.exe file in order to Russify the virtual machine, even if you wait, if the Russian program is easier to understand, then and practice.
3. When the time has come to launch the program, after launching you will be prompted to enter the license key, which you can find in the keys.txt file (I have the first one).
Well, the axis is the principle and that's it, the platform itself is installed on Windows 7, only create a WMware virtual machine.
This requires either a disk from the OS, or another image. Otzhe, shob install virtual machine:
1. Launch the VMware Workstation program.
2. Select "Create a new virtual machine" from the main contributor.


3. Start the virtual machine creation wizard. For the new one, select "Special (recommended)" and emboss "Dali".
4. Selecting the stars will be installed - from the drive, or it is necessary to select the image, in the case of the image, it can be shown to the new way and embossed "Dali".
5. At the next window, you can enter the key for the type of OS that is being restored. Here you can either enter, or just press "Dali".
6. Vіdkryєtsya vikno, in which you can set the name of the virtual machine, and indicate the way. You can change me, but the way is not raja chipati. Tisnemo "Dali".
7. At the upcoming dialogue window, you will be given the opportunity to show a rozmіr hard drive for a virtual machine. Specify and press "Dali".
8. All settings for the future virtual machine are entered, and "Done" is pressed.
Dali rozpochnetsya standard process of installing the operating system. After everything is installed, it will automatically start up. That's it, the virtual machine on Windows 7 is installed, and you can use it.
If you want to launch the virtual machine immediately, then just open the program, select the OS you need from the left column and press the "Turn on the virtual machine" button.
