Hi everyone...
I am pretty new to VPC and had obtained a copy of VPC 2004 SP1 and Windows
2003 Standard Edition from my university for education purposes. I wanted to
use VPC and use it to run Windows 2003. However Windows 2003 ran into problem

well, it really comes down to two "problems" and an oddity. And,
really, the oddity can be ignored ;)
1. When using a client OS with the OS enhancements installed (usually a
Windows 9x/NT/XP) my tablet seems to fail* after five minutes or so. I'm not

I've got VPC2004 running with a Windows XP Pro SP2 and all the security
hotfixes. Mostly a vanilla setup which I've done many times before. Odd
thing is, this one image that I have doesn't allow me to permanently change
the screen resolution setting.

I want to set up a virtual server farm on one VPC2004 host with all virtual
servers on that host having inter-connectivity for synchronisation etc.
But I also need to connect to those virtual servers from "real" machines.
I can only see how to do one or the other / not both, is ...

I am new to this subject. Have started using Virtual PC a month back. I
found it really amazing. I also tried Virtual Server, but it was a bit
complicated to setup and use. Virtual PC is a breeze to setup and use. Why
Virtual Server is needed, if Virtual PC is a so cool product?

I am using a LinkSys USB200M USB 2.0 network adapter. This adapter is
not showing up in the list of available adapters when setting up
networking for a virtual machine. Is this adapter not supported for
some reason?

I have a DOS graphic program (actually runs an embroidery machince) that ran
quite well on a Win98 PC but won't run on XP.  So I loaded Virtual PC and it
runs in VPC but it runs as if it were on an old 386...very slow.  It redraws
very slowly but oddly enough, the keyboard buffer ...

i can make my webcam work !!!
Is vpc 7.0 support usb ??? i need help !

Packages of debugging symbols for various Windows systems are distributed in
MSDN and can be downloaded from Microsoft.  It is not necessary to have a
continuous Internet connection from the computer running WinDbg to the msdl
symbol server.

I have problems with the keyboard in my Virtual PC: the repeat rate of the
keys is very slow. If you push a key, and stay pushing, the cursor goes very
slow from a (letter) position to the next. The same with the Backspace and
Delete keys. Is this problem known and can someone ...

I plan to have virtual pc set up in a training environment, but need to
secure it enough that users cannot tamper with the setup.
I have enabled security so only administrators can change the settings, but
the .vmc files have to be writable by the user in order to run.

I have one physical PC connected directly to the Internet via an onboard
ethernet card, and am trying to run a public-facing web server on a virtual
PC. Can I do this from the 'Advanced Settings' tab of the Windows firewall
settings? Am I into the mystical realms of the Microsoft ...

Howdy all,
I'm looking for methodologies to consolidate data files when VPC is used in
a training environment to leverage a secure host OS that is treated more or
less like a production network (lots of saved time vice ghosting setups).

Does VPC support the Athlon 64 64-bit processor? (or, for that purpose, any
x86-64 processor - Athlon, Opteron, newer Pentium 4)? Or does it only
operate in 32-bit mode (?)?

Some people have had reported success with installing Media Center
Edition 2005 under Virtual PC 2004, SP1.  Did you have to do anything
special in your VPC setttings to get MCE2005 to install?
I get a BSOD early in the windows setup.
