    OIT has several already setup virtual machines. In order to utilize our virtual machines, you will need to download an application called VirtualBox and the folder for the virtual machine you would like to use. Your machine must have an Intel Processor and at least 60GBs of space available for the virtual machine to work. If you would rather OIT install the virtual machine for you, please feel free to schedule an appointment at http://smu.edu/studentinstalls.
