Title: cab for my nephew
Post by: tony.silveira on May 24, 2012, 11:19:12 pm

hey guys,

i am converting a "lil champ" machine for my nephew and am almost done with the construct.  next up is the pc.

i want this machine to go right into the front end (mamewah), don't want the desktop showing at all.  i am installing tiny xp tonight, is there anyway to have windows be invisble, like completely?

i can set mamewah to power down on exit, just not sure how to get it to boot right up.  i mean, i can do start up items, but again, want xp invisible if at all possible.  nephew is autistic so i want this to be super easy and non distracting.  he loves computers so if he sees a glimpse of a desktop, he will be singularly focused on trying to hack the box :)

thanks all
