Abandoned Windows 10 for Windows 7
#7
(06-12-2019, 03:52 PM)xlurkr Wrote: If you want to use this thread to document the peculiarities of the Mac Mini for CQC, or sticking with Win7, I can contribute.  I tried to get CQC to run in a Fusion VM with Win7 and 8.1 years ago.  Eventually I gave up, and resorted to running it on a Boot Camp partition of Win7, natively booted.  That's been great.  I think the Mac Mini was the original ideal platform for a CQC server, before things like the NUC came along.

My version of the Mac Mini can't run Win8.1 or Win10 as it turns out.  That's why I'm sticking with 7 for the moment.  Some day I'll decommission it, but it's trouble-free, quiet, cool, and low power.  And free, or at least fully amortized.

Thanks. I wanted others to benefit from the 50-80 hours I spent troubleshooting and tweaking to no avail.
