    @sean Thanks
    It really does need to be a standalone computer then.

      I tried to run as suggested and came up with this problem:
      WARNING! Could not find config file. Please create one. Starting with default configuration.
      What is the default configuration please? Is there a dummy one that I could copy or should I create a config.txt file and let MagicMirror write to it please?

        @gwyls in the magic mirror folder you have a folder config, check there and you find a file named config.js.sample just rename that one to config.js and should be work.

          @gwyls I think you need to read Manual.

              @gwyls

              What you are supposed to do is make a COPY of the config.js.sample (so that you never lose it) and rename the pasted copy to config.js.

              Once you have MM running you can press Ctrl M to hide MM and use your PC for other things. Simply clicking the MM icon in the task bar will bring MM to the front.
