    Our project used Virtual PC 5.2 early on. We used Windows XP Pro Guest OS
    that grew from 2.2GB[base image without applications] to 12GB! I do not see
    why this could be given the fact that there were limited applications[<
    100MB] and there is no reason why the image should grow to 12GB.

    Our project is now moving to Virtual PC 2004. I also have access to Virtual
    PC 5.2.

    I would now like to

    1. Determine if the image that grew is a dynamic one or fixed type of
    image.
    2. How can i make an existing image fixed to a specific size?
    3. Did Virtual PC 5.2 support fixed/dynamic?

    Thank you.
