Default Re: DRB III Emulator?

Thanks for sharing.
I used a Dell 6430u laptop that I had for a few years.
I didn't want to wipe off all that I already had on it so I bought a new disk drive to re-install a fresh copy of Win 7 on it before installing everything else required for the DRB III Emulator. The drive was pretty cheap ($22 -

) and I installed it as en external eSATA drive so I could boot to it, rather than the internal drive, when I wanted to use the emulator. It looks a bit funky (see pix below) but only when I need to use the emulator. I think there is a more elegant way to do this but I just wanted to get the new sensors "learned". I'll consider elegant alternatives when I get around to upgrading my laptop to Win 10.

Drive is velcroed on the cover of the laptop
