Virtual Computer Lab

The Virtual Computer Lab is a Student Tech Fee-funded service from Campus Computing that provides USFSP students and professors on campus with virtual access to our computer lab software and printers.

The Virtual Computer Lab is only accessible through campus networks, such as the wireless network and the Student Housing network. It's powered by VMware's View application, which you will have to download and install upon first use.

Windows users can save their files directly to their computer or flash drive. The My Documents folder inside the virtual computer becomes an shortcut to the user's local computer drive.

Mac OS users can also save their files. Since the Virtual Computer Lab has Internet access built in, Mac users can use email or Web storage services, such as MobileMe or SkyDrive, to sync or send their files to their computer.

Start the virtual computer lab.

After installing the View Client, you will be asked to configure a connection server and log in. Please follow the quick steps below.

  1. Type in "mypc1.stpete.usf.edu" for the server name, then click the "Connect."
  2. In the authentication screen, type "usfsp" for the username and password.
  3. Type "lab" for the domain and click "Log In."
