  Wow man that’s all very interesting. I do not think I can figure it out though. Its more complex than I thought it’d be.

    There may be other out of the box type solutions. This setup really isn’t bad. You can find info on places like YT that are step by step for Windows.

    If you are at all interested in learning about software and how to get started using a command line, this would be a good place to start.

    Oobabooga is well configured to make installation easy. It just involves a few commands that are unlikely to have catastrophic errors. All of the steps required are detailed in the README.md file. You don’t actually need to know or understand everything I described in the last message. I described why the model is named like x/y/z if you care to understand. This just explained details I learned by making lots of mistakes. The key here is that I linked to the model you need specifically and tried to explain how to choose the right file from the linked model. If you still don’t understand, feel free to ask. Most people here remember what it was like to learn.
