same machine.
Using 10.3 and VPC 7.0.1, you can access a local build of a dynamic
site using the following address:

When I open Explorer under Virtual PC (Windows XP Home), I cannot find
hardly any of my files & folders that I can access thru Mac Finder.
I'm new to Virtual PC, and find it hard to start when I cannot even
find my files.  I hope this is an easy simple problem to resolve.

I installed VPC7 on a G5 running MacOS X Server 10.4.3, copied a VPC6
virtual machine from another mac, converted it to VPC7 and started it
up.  OK so far.  But shared networking is broken.  The interface
receives info via DHCP, but it can't reach the DNS server.  VPC creates

I am considering buying an i-mate K Jam WM 5 mobile phone and need to know
if I will be able to sync Outlook with it?

Even though I just did this last week, suddenly today I can't drag a folder
from the virtual pc to the mac desktop or a folder on the mac desktop. The
folder just stops at the edge of the virtual pc desktop. I have virtual PC
version 7  for Mac and a Mac G-5

I've been trying to get Windows media player version 10 to work on my
new G4 for two weeks. I was told to load Virtual PC XP Pro and then it
would work. Nothing else has workes so I'm hesitant to spend the
$200.00 without any guarantees. Suggestions please.

Has anyone noticed a problem with any one, or all, of the
control-alt-end keys on an ibook? I have used VPC for years, going back
to their original version. On my G4 tower, or previous machines, I
never had a problem with a standard keyboard using these keys. However,

I am unable to make an Internet connection with AOL as my ISP and a
dialup modem.  I have connected to AOL on the Mac side then opened VPC
and used the IE browser.  I get, "Found web site, connecting", get a
progress bar which goes to about 50% and then nothing happens after

I have a new dual-core G5, Apple external USB modem, Tiger 10.4.3, VPC
7.0.2 and WinXP. I've set up VPC to use the Apple modem on Com 2. XP's
modem setup wizard sees the modem OK ('moto1_gen'; it is, indeed, a
motorola modem). But every  time I try to dial a PPP connection, the

A client of ours is using an Epson Stylus Photo RX600 printer on Virtual PC
v6.0 build #3140 running XP Pro (SP2) on a MAC (OSX v10.3.9). Originally,
the printer was not being recognized under Start/Printers&Faxes, so we
installed the Epson driver for this printer manually. The ...

I've seen a couple people (Richard Cardona, Steve Jain) refer to using
Differencing VHDs in VPC 7.  I'm familiar with the concept in VPC2004
(Win), and I love that feature!  But I can't seem to find it on the Mac
version -- not in the UI anyway.  I'm comfortable hacking around, but ...

I have  given up on Virtual PC and bought a windows laptop, so now have
an unused VPC 7 with XP pro.
Is there any way I can install my copy of XP pro on the Virtual PC
disks, onto my new real PC?

Hi guy's

I'm trying to load Tom Tom Nav 5 on to my Ipaq hx2790 but am getting an

I'm looking for help with VPC and PPP. I have a Windoze-only
application that uses Telnet to get to a remote host. I set up a PPP
connection to the remote network using my Mac's Internet Connect app
(Tiger), but it appears that the Windoze app can't take advantage of
