XP Client black screen

Hi,

This was all working (installed yesterday) until this morning, when the
guest OS decided to just display a black screen. NB The mini-screen in the
Virtual Console looks correct.

Also if I drag the window size, the screen is displayed during drag but
reverts to black when I 'let go'.

I can right-click on the desktop and the popup appears on the console (not
client window).

I guess its a display problem - HP/Compaq nx6125 notebook, AMD Turion 1800M,
1.5 GB RAM. Host is XP-SP2 patched up. Guest is XP-SP2 patched up as of
yesterday.

Makes the system a little unusable right now :-(.

Thanks for any assistance....

Regards

Graham

 

I am experience the same issue as well but I am using Vista RC1. last night
after I upgrade the beta vista video driver from Toshiba, the display has
been black unless I move the Virtual PC window over the Gadget/Sidebar (I am
unable to restore to old driver). I have change the color from 32bit to
16bit and that fix the issue but I really like the aero glass look and did
not want to give that up. anyone out there has any thoughts on the issue?

Hardware.
Toshiba M400
Intel 2.16 Dual core
1GB ram
Windows Vista RC1 Host
Windows XP SP2 Guest

Thanks
