Windows Forum / Virtual PC / May 2008Keboard types multiple characters per stroke
Using VPC 04 on Win XP SP2 as the host and guest I have a problem where all the guests type characters and they come out like this: HHHeeeelllllooooo WWoooorrrrlldddd. It does not appear to be the type rate in the guest Windows XP setup because it even does this during the DOS based portion of setup and a RIS setup on the guest.

Is XPSP2 even a supported host-guest OS in VPC 2004? I have been using XP SP2 with VPC 2007 (with the additions) and I don't face any issues...

Both VPC2004 and VPC2007 are happily working on XP-Pro as host also with SP2 installed. In fact I have *both* installed and working on my HP workstation laptop running XP-Pro SP2. I use VPC2004 when I need the guests to be able to communicate using RS232 because VPC2007 has a bug in the serial port handling. I use VPC2007 for all other needs including running Vista guests. (Can't do it at the same time though...) Bo Berglund Of course XP SP2 is a supported host and guest on VPC 2004 as well as VPC 2007. Why wouldn't it be?

Keyboard is an MS Digital Media 1.0 This sounds like a problem that occurs on certain laptops. What host PC hardware are you using? It has nothing to do with the installed guest operating system, it is just the integration with the host hardware from VPC itself. I don't know off the top of my head the KB article that describes this problem, but it has been discussed multiple times in this newsgroup and everytime the KB article number was provided by someone. You might try searching the newsgroup for similar threads. Bo Berglund It is a desktop white box system.
