Is there any way to change the default location that Virtual PC will try to
save files to?  Right now, it keeps trying to save to the users my docs
location.  We are redirecting my docs folders to our dfs and this is
impacting performance.

I've been told, that while not supported by Microsoft, Virtual PC can be
installed and run on a Terminal Server 2003.  I need to make available to my
remote staff some beta installs that are only available as Virtual images.
Has anyone attempted this?

I need help, please.
I have a DOS application Paradox running of NT4 with Win 98 clients (x3).
I have tried to run the clients using XP but there is some problem which I

Warcraft, etc) so I realised I had 4 options:
1) Dig up my old Pentium 166 box and attach my keyboard, mouse, and monitor
to it

I don't know if it is possible, however:
It would be nice if one can carry around a (portable) version of Virtual PC
and his vmc/vhd files on a usb disk and be able to launch his VPC directly,
even on guest account (or on PCs that don't have VPC installed).

I've been using VPC2004SP1 for a short while for testing against different
OS's and it works a treat.
I would like to create a new virtual pc for testing of MCE2005RU2
development work, but I am a bit stuck because of the limitations of the S3
