Hi Folks, I'm running a 20" iMac, 1.25 PowerPC G4, OS X 10.4.9, & 1.5
Gig RAM. I had VPC 6.1 installed and running with Windows XP Pro. I
just installed VPC 7.01 Upgrade. The installation seemed to go just
fine BUT, when Windows opens, my cursor is confined / restricted to
the XP Pro window. I cannot move onto the Mac desktop and cannot move
to the top menu line to allow the software to update. Although the
proram(s) I have in Windows operate normally (albiet quite slowly) I
must select START / Log Off, to get back to my Mac. Any suggestions
would be deeply appreciated.

P.S. I checked back through 7 Dec 2006, but could not find a similar
post.

You need to reinstall the Additions (see the VPC help for details).
You can release the mouse using the Apple key.

I'd upgrade to VPC 7.02 then install the Windows Additions (it's on the
VPC menus).
