Hi ... am new to MAC and new to VPC. Just bought VPC 7 and started to install it. After the first reboot, when it shoudl have led me to configure VPC, i get following message "permnissions for the support files were set correctly, but virtual switch failed to load. please report this to microsoft (code: A1004) ..." any ideas what's causing this and how i can get it fixed? thanks ! > Hi ... am new to MAC and new to VPC.

Virtual Switch doesn't work in Tiger until you install the 7.0.2 update.  SignatureBarry Margolin, barmar@alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group *** download and install the 7.0.2 update at mactopia.com Make SURE VPC is not running when you do this. thanks Paul ... at what stage in the VPC installation do I install the 7.0.2 update? > thanks Paul ... at what stage in the VPC installation do I install the > 7.0.2 update? after you've installed 7.0. Really. I'm not being obtuse or flipant. SignatureDeeDee, don't press that button! DeeDee! NO! Dee... After you complete the installation of VPC 7.0, you can create your virtual machine (install Windows). When that is done, quit Virtual PC. Download and install the 7.0.2 update.

It sounds as though you may have the version that already *is* 7.02. Mine came as 7.02 straight out of the box, but the part number on the packaging was that of 7.0 - only a small sticker had the 7.02 part number (X11-35009) If it is and you check the readme file on the CD you'll probably see that it actually tells you *not* to reboot. The installation 'should' then go smoothly. -Jay- No Jay, If it was 7.0.2 to being with, you would not get the permissions errors.

Oh well, just a though :-) Jay thanks Jay (for reminding of good installtion practise to read the notes) and Paul (hint on the update). I've got it working now with a combo of what you both advised - cheers!! > On 26/5/06 20:38, in article > 1148672310.907724.327430@u72g2000cwu.googlegroups.com, "Paul Power" [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Jay On 27/5/06 14:10, in article 1148735442.759524.260970@i40g2000cwc.googlegroups.com, "luapmartin@mac.com" > thanks Jay (for reminding of good installtion practise to read the > notes) and Paul (hint on the update). > > I've got it working now with a combo of what you both advised - > cheers!! Glad to hear you're all set up now. How do you find it - speed-wise? Personally I find VPC can be annoyingly slow to respond a lot of the time.
