So I should be okay to run games like Dead Island or Crysis 2 in Ubuntu x64 or any of its variations with a VM Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on my 3.2GHz AMD Phenom II 955 Quad Core CPU w/ 4x G.Skill RipjawsX 4Gb DDR3-1333 @ 9-9-9-24 and msi N460GTX Hawk GeForce GTX 460 w/1Gb 256-bit GDDR5 RAM?

i have to disagree. i noticed a huge drop in performance between native and VM.

Core i7 940, 8gb ram, 128gb SSD, 1gb nvidia quadro fx3800. its no slouch.
i also tried it out on my main desktop. horrible performance:
Core i7 920 12gb ram, 3-15k rpm SAS drives in RAID0, 2xati 6970 2gb, water cooled, etc, etc.

you cannot RELIABLY play call of duty/battlefield in VM without huge performance drops. sure, you can load up a game thats about 3 years old and play it no problem, drop your graphics settings down and probably play it ok, but i didnt spend all my money on hardware to to get only 'mediocre' performance.

Alright, I guess it depends on the game. Lets try to keep this on-topic.. This is a Linux app and you will need Linux to run it. Dual boot if you love Windows. Did the app work for you?
I ignore PMs with questions that could be answered by searching. If you PM me, I probly won't respond.

I don't love Windows I'm trying to find a reason to switch, but since I'm a Gamer I'm pretty much forced to stick with Windows (isn't that a Monopoly of some sort?) Anyways back on topic... Great work Adam I'm sure this app will come in handy for me in the future should the need ever arise

*edit* Decided to mess around with it and I've got to say you've done some nice work. Simple and easy to use with no room to wonder if it was run in the correct order or need to rerun it or click some button to recheck.

You will need JTAG or UnBrickable Mod. Its rare that the device will show up in S5PC110 mode with a black screen, but it is possible.

Is that a question? You answered it yourself..

As stated before, this program leaves no guessing. If all you get is the Samsung logo, send it in for repair or fix it yourself.

Hi guys, hope you could help out.

Will running the resurrector and Hemdall be possible on a VM (Puppy Linux) as i am running windows and don't want to dual boot as much as possible.

Thanks in advance!
