Hi all!

Ive tried installing virtual pc 7 several times but encountered problem
after restarting from setup that says something about startup/security.
I tried clicking fix-fix-cancel and nothing happened after. I think the
installation was disrupted by this security issue that pop ups on
startup. Cant continue after this then tried to install again but
receive same error after restarting

about the virtual pc 7.02 update, it wont install since i havent fully
installed the virtual pc7 at first.

also checked website from microsoft about this error... and read there
to click [fix] [fix] [cancel] then [ok] when prompeted about the
virtual networking. I havnt been to the virtual networking process, i
wasnt even prompted for the cd key yet and also to insert the second
disc that came with it.

Hope you guys can help me.

Lots of thanks,

Juni

First, have a look in Applications. Is Virtual PC listed there? If so,
go to mactopia.com and download and install the 7.0.2 update

I tried searching on the application and didnt see any virtual pc
there. I tried searching the whole drive and found two resuts: (a)
Virtual PC scripts folder --> HD/library/scripts/Virtual PC scripts
 (b)Virtual PCOSService folder -->
HD/library/StartupItems/VirtualPCOSServices

Ive downloaded 7.02 tried installing and received message "Virtual PC
cannot be updated because virtual pc for mac version 7 is not installed
on this computer. please install virtual pc and run this updater again.

Thanks Again

OK. So....first, uninstall any vestiges of the bad installation. On the
VPC CD, go to Tools&Manuals and click on Uninstall Virtual PC.
Then, install Virtual PC....when you get to the messages about the
startup items, click on Decide Later. For the Virtual Switch message,
click OK. After you do the reboot, check for Virtual PC in the
Applications folder andthen run the 7.0.2 updater

So I have been having a simular problem. For some reason it doesn't
want to open in the start. The I hit decide later, then it asks me
again and I hit decide later. Then I get a message that the program has
quit unexpectinally.Then it asks if I want to retry or send a report.
When I retry it doesn't work then it asks me if I want to use the new
or origainl settings.

This is driving me mad!
Thanks,

THAT sounds like you're installing on an Intel Mac
dlatella2002 - 27 Sep 2006 16:38 GMT
You would be right. Is there any way to get this to work or have I just
wasted my money?

VPC won't run on an Intel Mac. If you bought it within the last 45
days, call the Refund Dept at MS......888-673-8624
