How under latest vpc 7?

I just installed Broadband on my Mac Mini 1.42MHz (Tiger 10.4.4) and
was given only a USER NAME and PASSWORD by my Server, so I installed
these on my Mac with PPPoE plus the Automatic setup of TCP/IP and it
connects and works perfectly.

Virtual pc sees phone in usb device menus but windows xp professional and
windows media player 10 does not. Does anyone know how to sync this Verizon
v-cast phone so i can download songs to my phone from Windows media player
10.

i currently use windows xp on virtual pc 7 on my mac. My mac has 1ghz
g4 1gb of ram. I set the windows xp ram to 256 (half of 512) if i set
the ram to 32-60 will it still run?

bar to have nothing? Useing a offical ms way?

I used to be able to connect but a few months ago it stopped and I haven't
been able to connect no matter what Microsoft's help page says. I've used
both Virtual switch and Shared networking without success.
I did update the Ibook's memory a little but wouldn't expect that to effect

I need to run MS Project 2003 on my MacBook Pro. I have a Windows 2000
Professional license that I purchased with Virtual PC 7 last year. Of
course, Virtual PC is useless on the MBPro, and as far as I know,
there's no way to "unbundle" Windows from the Virtual PC installer

Hi - Yesterday I received a Norton virus alert, my first on a PB G4 and
wondered if a virus caught in a Mac environment can migrate to a
windows environment on the same machine?  The virus called Downloader
3508735352-4221772500.Cache was quarantined on my Mac. I have cleared

I'm running OSX 10.4.4 on an iBook G4. Installed VPC with warnings and
errors of the type:

OSX 10.4.6,  Win 98 SE, VPC 6.1.1 Slow dial up.  I want to download

I am attempting to install my VPC w/ Windows XP, but each time I get to the
step to install the Windows, the process stops with less than 10 seconds to
go and neither the VPC or windows shows up.  Am I missing a step? Or is the
zipped file on disc 2 not completely opening?  I'm at a ...

I have Virtual PC with XP and I am soon to upgrade my computer to a
iMac or MacPro. I'd like to take my copy of XP with me to this new
computer for use with Parallels or Boot Camp, but I've heard there is
no simple way of moving it over. Is their a solution to this? I'm

I have installed Virtual PC6 and the 6.11 update.
Now do I have to go to the Microsoft site and download Windows Security
Updates and other Windows XP files, or are these two Virtual PC
installations all I need?

i had to reinstall vpc 5 on my ibook, and in doing so, i seem to have
an extra windows98se boot disk on my ibook desktop.  when i drag it to
the trash to get rid of it, i says i can't delete it because it is
locked.

I'd like to start Virtual PC from a script and specify the image to load and
to launch. For that I need the command line options. Sounds like a trivial
question, but all I could find were the ones for Virtual PC on top of
Windows, but obviously they don't work on the Mac.
