e-sata port too slow, not possible to boot from e-sata.. i dont know i havent tried it yet :P

@edit: but from what i googled the e-sata port should be fast enough

Are you installing an OS on an external HDD? :/

Why?

Unless you mean the HDD itself can't boot? or wut

i want a second OS (which hasnt to do anything with my main OS) so i can put SLAC on it.. i simply dont want SLAC running on my main OS aslong as it isnt whitelisted.

So what i want to do:

connect external hdd via e-sata on the laptop (on which i have win7 + slac + et) and remove (e.g. bios or whatever) the main hdd with the main OS from the laptop.

u get it? :P

dual boot doesn't need 2 hdd's, it creats 2 partitions and on 1 of them there's one op sys and the other has 2nd op sys and when u boot then u just select which one u want to boot
u can have 2 XP's also like this or whatever

ye ofc i can make 2 partitions on one hdd, but i dont want to.. i use a SSD with 80gb.. why would i want to waste 20gb of it just for an OS which i will use once 1-2 weeks :P

ssd is for op systems anyways, using it for file storage is gay and equals killing it and XP eg takes 5 GB ? if even that

i dont use the ssd for file storage.. i only have my win7 + programs on it.. files and games are on a snd hdd.

running xp on my laptop isnt rly working.. missing drivers etc.. so i would need vista or win7.

i will just use the external hdd.. its not needed at all anyway :) i just hope it will work.

"trash" was maybe a bit too harsh... aslong as it isnt whitelisted i wont trust it.. doesnt matter how efficient its dedecting methods are and how lightweight it works.

as i (we) yet dont know how efficient it rly is, i cant judge on that.. i can only say what i know about it.. and that is that it looks not trustable. atleast for me.. np with this workaround i would feel safe :) connectin an external hdd and removing my main ones every 1-2 weeks for an offi is fine lol

also removed "trash" :P

and dont get me wrong.. would be nice if SLAC is the AC which we are all hoping for.. i just dont get it why it isnt whitelisted yet.. u dont have to pay for it? the only thing u need to do is to send in your file?

It isn't whitelisted because it gets updated.

And it's probably a very good thing for us that is taking this LONG to get whitelisted at any rate.

That means it's very hard to crack and that means that cheaters got their hands full on trying to look inside of SLAC :)

did anyone even say it has been sent to AC yet? I doupt and cracking and making bot for it has to do with whitelisting....

Quazz 16 Sep 2010, 16:41
Well yeah, I have to send a new file every time it gets updated because the file is 'modified' then. I have to do with every program so it's no biggy :3

you don't have to.
good anti virus programs scan your memory. and slac is not encrypted in the memory (so you can start it --> dump it --> decrypted).

Quazz 16 Sep 2010, 18:31
Ehm...if it were that easy, then the Cheating community would already have released milliions of SLAC proof cheats :D

And yeah, my AV scans memory and it detects SLAC as trojan so it's added to EXCEPTIONS, thus it doesn't get scanned or decrypted at any rate...

You don't seriously think that having possible malware on an external HDD will keep your "main OS" safe?
▼
beAsty 16 Sep 2010, 01:28
i will just remove my main hdd´s from the OS when booting from the external one.. and when booting the main os i will remove the external one.. yes i seriously think i will be safe then

and where`s the difference in having it on an external harddrive instead of ur main harddrive? despite of having a lower speed in transfering files...
