You might have heard about U3, the platform that lets you install any application directly to a Flash drive and use them anywhere. The great thing about this is you don’t need to wonder whether the application you’re installing is portable or not-just install away. The downside? You’ll need to buy a whole new drive that comes with U3, and if you ever tire of it or need the extra space for data, you can’t get rid of it! So what if you want all the good things about U3, and not have to buy a new disk? Enter Mojo pac!
What it does?
When you install Mojo pac on your USB drive, it givers you your own virtual XP, where you can install and use your applications…List of apps that works on Mojo are listed Here.
Connect your USB drive to your PC, and choose it the installer asks you to. It copies essential items from your documents and settings, Windows and Program files Folders, and also gives you the option of copying any other files that you want. Running Mojo pac first time is like running a fresh install of XP. To installing your applications just pop in the installation CD or Run set up file.
How it works?
With the few essential files that it copies from your Windows installations, plus its own function ability, Mojo pac successfully emulates a Win XP installation. Technically, then, you don’t even need to worry about violating EULA.
When you open My computer from within your Mojo PC, you’ll notice that your USB disk shoes up as the C: drive. This protects the host PC from any drastic changes that you could make and also ensures that even most badly written installers won’t accidentally write to the real C: drive. We have encountered many installers that automatically start installing to C:/ Program files without so much as asking you. Mojo pac not only protects the host pc, it also protects itself- it only gives access to windows default programs, and is intelligent enough to distinguish between these and the rest of the programs installed on the Host. So even if programs on the Host PC are infected with viruses, your Mojo pac stays safe because it just can’t run those processes.
Speed up your Mojo:
- In My Computer (on your host PC), right click on the USB drive and select Properties.
- Under the Hardware Tab, select the drive and click on the Properties button.
- In the dialogue box that pops up, you’ll see that “Optimize for quick removal” is selected; change this to “Optimize for Performance.”
Mojo pac lets you switch between the MojoPC and the Host PCs desktop; In addition, it needs administrative access to allow the user to install applications to his MojoPC.
Mojo pac has also tested with large number of games-visit: www.mojopac.com
