Mac Forum / Applications / Virtual PC / August 2007

I have been  using VPC 7.0.3 with Windows XP Pro for a while now. I
have just imported a virtual PC using Windows Server 2003 R2 and it
will not boot. I start the machine and get the black screen. I've let
it run all night thinking it may generate an error message, but no

My existing VPC 7 all of a sudden stoped loading, giving an "Isass.exe
System Error: Insufficient system resources to complete the API"
message.
I was able to reinstall VPC7 and Windows XP Pro, which works fine, but

I am running Mac OS  on Powerbook G4 machine with Virtual PC 7
(Windows XP).
My network connection for the Virtual PC is only 10.0 Mbps in XP .i
want to increase this to 100 Mbps same as it apears in Mac OS.

All:
I run VPC 7.02 on a PowerPC iMac 1.6 mz., running OSX 10.4.  I just
use VPC to run Quicken Delux 05.  That's where the problem began....
I started up Quicken this morning, and for some reason, it got hung up

Where can I find resource to create a virtual pc image of an existing
win xp hard drive?
The virtual pc is for Mac
Thanks

Any ideas on how to get the magnify feature to work in VPC 2007?  Demoing
Dynamics AX (Windows Server 2003) , and could REALLY use this feature, as it
is designed to work, and DOES work in VISTA Host Operating System

I'm using Virtual PC 6.1 on an old PowerMac G4, MacOS 9.2.2. The
virtual machine is running Windows 2000 SP3 as installed from the VPC
CD; it's been updated to SP4 via Windows Update, plus a variety of
different security updates and what-not have been applied.

I've been told by some that Windows 2000 Pro is the most stable on VPC
7.  Others say XP Pro is fine.  Can I use the cheaper OEM versions for
sale online or do I need a retail box?
In you opinion, am I better off just getting a cheap PC laptop to sit

I would like convert an existing VPC7 for Mac image to VPC2004 for
Windows (or another version or VMWARE). Is it possible?.
Thanks!.

I've been using Virtual PC on my Windows XP machine for some time now.
Having recently bought a MacBook I was very glad to see that there was
a Virtual PC for Macs. I did notice that version 7.0 would not run on
Intel-based Macs but I saw there was an upgrade to 7.0.2 available. I

I have read the MS support tips on installs OS and programs but have
not seen anything about install VPC itself. How easy/difficult is it?
Do I have to partition my HD to make a Windows-specific disk? If so, I
may not be able to do. I am away from home, don't have my OSX install
