Hi guys. Do any of you know if it's possible to install Win 7 on my 16GB SD card? It doesn't pop up as a drive to install it on. Any way around this? I just want to try it out and see how it goes.

Thanx,
-Cyg

No, it is not possible. Not only will Windows not install to a removable drive, but the SD slot on the Mini 9 is not bootable.

Well it was worth a shot. Thanks Steve.
