elfuegodelbanjo Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 I have an old eMachines running windows 7, no internet connection because I'm building this at work . I have the roms, I have the emulators, how do I get launchbox and big box on this computer .. this is a very slow build I started. Quote
elfuegodelbanjo Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 Have a license for big box already.. I'm not having success migrating launchbox onto this stand alone computer Quote
Retro808 Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 LB is going to require some updated dependancies especially if you are using the latest version. That Win 7 pc is likely going to need them. So that might be an issue if it is not connected to the internet. Also if you are running 32bit Win 7 LB no longer supports 32bit. Quote
elfuegodelbanjo Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 An error iv been coming across after trying to start it up Quote

elfuegodelbanjo Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 But I cannot download and install, yes the title "noob tube" is pretty accurate but again I have no internet connection on this pc,... So ,is this a pipe dream to run launchbox off a win 7 pc that has no internet connection ? Quote

Yeah you are gonna struggle period on a machine with no internet, not only with installing it to start with, but also adding games as none will have any images at all as that is all downloaded. Id suggest getting a USB WIFI dongle. Quote
elfuegodelbanjo Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 Thanks for taking the time and the advice. Lol, I'm building a cabinet, and getting this running has turned into the hardest part , construction, wiring buttons, electrical... I'm stuck at what should be the easiest part ... lol , thanks again for the help Quote
DeadVoivod Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 You definitely should have an internet connection, otherwise you're indeed gonna struggle a lot like Neil mentioned. Quote
