I had VPC 7 installed when I was running Panther, then I upgraded to Tiger. I updated VPC to 7.0.3 and I had no problems.

I decided to uninstall the program for whatever reason, I used the uninstall tool on the CD. Later I decided to re-install it. Now after it reboots after install I get the message "You must log in as administrator to run". But I am the administrator. I even tried updating to VPC 7.0.3, no luck. I even changed the Permissions Owenership to the app to my account rather than system, no luck.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

I ran into this problem, as well, decidedlyso. I solved the problem by logging in as the "root" administrator and set up Virtual PC this way. Once I got the application working, I just logged into my own account and the application worked fine.
