hpractitioner, I haven't dedicated time to trying it.
At some point in the past I used Crossover 8.0 (Wine Emulator) and got Bioera to load (notice: I didn't say work) but I have no electrodes or input to pass to it so I can't confirm if it actually worked. It loaded which was neat to see.
I think I used XP as a 'bottle' filesystem for it to load in to. I didn't quite understand the Graphical User Interface for it as well.

What happens for you when you try to load it in VMware? (btw, what version of VMware?)

Hi Hagbard,

I am using vmware Version 3.0.1 (215242).

I get this error message

Bioera can't be executed on virtual PC Machine
Exit code: 0
Press any key to continue

I have Bioexplorer running fine on VMware.

I wanted to test out Bioera and can't get it to start

Yea...it's pretty clear it doesn't like being loaded in a virtual machine environment, hehe... What a real shame!

Maybe you can give Bioera a go on Crossover v8 or even v9?

Is Bioexplorer open-source? Can you tell me about your setup?

Thanks!

I have loaded it up on my old PC to test it out.

I will give crossover a go later today.

you can check out Bio-explorer half way down this website http://pocket-neurobics.com/

Similar to bio-era, with a few less functions

I don't think bio-exporer is open source

FYI:

starting from version 2.3.37 (or 2.2.137) it is now possible to execute BioEra on vmware and other virtual machines.

Note: the above is true only for the USB dongle license, not the \"Single computer\" license.
