Haven't seen this question lately, but I have found a nice solution.

I installed XP via Boot Camp on my Mac, and then run it under VMware Fusion. Durametric seems to work ok in this mode, no rebooting required. See photo...

Good info and good to know. I am also on Mac but I purchase an old Thinkpad for using Durametric. Is it running properly? No lost in processor speed?

 

Jon, I use Durametric the exact same way, have been for last couple of years on my MacBook Pro... It's a bonus!

 

Another software source is Parallels 5.0 mac edition. (both great)

 

Hey thanks thats very good to know

 

Yes and no. That is "yes" it is running properly, and "no" meaning there is a loss in processor speed. I'm logging 12 functions plus time. When I run it in XP mode, I get data about every 0.5 sec. In virtual mode, it is 0.7 sec between points. It's a fairly old laptop - 2 GHz Intel core duo and 667 MHz DDRAM.

Thanks again for this information.

 

Just an FYI...it also works using Parallels and Vista (urrrhhhhhh...I hope Win7 is better) with no problems.

 

VISTA??? OMG, Bobby, that's the only thing I know of that has more crashes than the Chicago Region PCA at Road America. (I heard that last year they had to shut the track down during the Labor Day event because they ran out of ambulances and wreckers...)

LMFAO...

In my defense, I got an authorized copy as a promotional gift - I thought what the heck...I'm an OS X user anyways. Great googlie mooglie...what a memory hog.

Lesson of the day: If it runs on Vista, it'll run on anything.

I run the Durametric pro version on my MacBook pro with Parallels 5.0 (no Bootcamp required) running Windows XP. Works great, although I haven't tried logging 12 functions at the same time. I have a Windows laptop that I use to run VAG-COM for my Audi but only because I set that up before I got my Mac. Durametric runs well enough on my Mac that I haven't felt the need to move over to the Windows laptop.
