Mac Forum / Applications / Virtual PC / May 2004

I have a problem running Virtual PC 6.1.1 on my Powerbook G4 1.25 Ghz
running OS 10.3.3.   Whenever I start up Virtual PC and try to run Windows
XP Pro and Windows 98 it is very slow.  I mean this is way too slow - slow
to the point where it is impossibly usable.  It took 11 hours to install
Windows XP.

I do not know what is wrong.  When I had VPC 5.0 installed, Windows 98
booted just fine.  But then it froze and would never boot again.  I upgraded
to VPC 6.1.1 because I was told of a Panther compatibility problem.  I was
also told it would work in Panther.  It doesn't.  I have uninstalled the
program and have wiped any trace of it from my hard drive and reinstalled it
but the problem persists.  Please help.
  Thank you.
