How to deal with VIDA?

[Metallo]

Hi guys,

I was following this discussion as I am in the middle of the same installation on on old Pentium III with W7 Pro 32bit.
Obviously an old PC but it will run fine as this is the only program I will install.

I also unpacked the VIDA 2012A ISO to a folder using MagicISO and went for the customized installation as I do not need DICE or Adobe.
The problem is that once the installation is finished I do not get any 'VIDA Running Status' icon at the bottom right and I just see the installation log files under C:/VIDA/System.

I also tried the "All in One' installation bypassing the RAM issue of min. 2GB changing the /ini file to 1.5GB which is what I have, however, the installation got stuck although everything seemed to be installed under C:VIDA.

I got to the point that I could not understand why getting these problems and I was about to burn a double layer but when I read that 'packetfire' managed to install from a folder then there is no point for me to try, also because I do not see the difference, really.

Any suggestion on your end?
I also tried 2012B, same problem.
My PC has just been formatted and W7 is a clean installation.

Thanks
Alex
