Hi,
Can i install Virtual PC 2007 on Windows 7?

Can i use vhd of VPC2007 on new Windows Virtual PC?
I tried to do it, but when i lunch vmcx it says " 'DC' was unable to write
to one of its virtual hard disk".

Have you any suggestion for me?

thanks

Mauro

Yes, you can run VPC 2007 under Win 7. If you have installed VPC 7, you
need to uninstall it before you try to run VPC 2007.

How many vhds were attached to this vm before? Are they all available and
attached to the new vm?

Thanks for your answer, i'll try to uninstall windows virtual pc and install
vpc2007.

In the new VM, i attached one vhd...i think that the problem could be VM
addition of VPC 2007..i'll try to uninstall that and play again new vm.

Hi,
it was very simple...i found the solution...

Create a new virtual machine and then a new vmcx linking it with VPC2007 vhd
is the wrong way.
You must open vmc of VPC2007 with VMwindow and then VM 7 will create a
correct vmcx for the old virtual machine.

Thanks for your help
