Internet Problem with Virtual PC 2007 Eskimosound 6/23/2007 4:17:00 PM Hi I have just installed Virtual PC on my Vista Ultimate 64bit. No problem whatsoever. Then I installed my old XP, still no problem. But once I run Virtual PC and shutdown I lose my Internet connection. I found a soultion in microsoft support but it is for Virtual PC 2004 and involves me finding the Network Connections (Not that easy in Vista, if you can tell me a quick way then please do they dont show up in search) But that is only temporary and indeed once my comp is rebooted I have to uninstall and then reinstall Virtual PC, which is very difficult, it freezes my machine and I have to reboot and then do it...so not very impressed although Virtual PC 2007 is very cool. So any idea how to solve my network connectivity. As I say I found the solution in microsoft support but it doesnt work properly..i.e.it was a solution for Virtual PC 2004 running on XP machines.

Re: Internet Problem with Virtual PC 2007 "Charlie Russel - MVP" <charlie[ at ]mvKILLALLSPAMMERSps.org> 6/23/2007 8:51:42 PM FWIW, I've been using Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 without issues on Vista. A pain to get working because of UAC. Not hard, just a nuisance and you have to follow all the steps carefully. To get to the Network Connections dialog, the easiest way is the command line: ncpa.cpl -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "Eskimosound" <Eskimosound[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E3688080-688F-4AA1-954B-D149FC44F1B9[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Internet Problem with Virtual PC 2007 Eskimosound 6/24/2007 12:14:00 AM Yep thats fine and I set it to recieve the correct file for service and then on powering down and then up again I have lost all internet connections!!!! The only way to reinstate it is to unistall Virtual PC 2007 which in itself leaves garbage every where. Is there not a finite solution?

Re: Internet Problem with Virtual PC 2007 "Charlie Russel - MVP" <charlie[ at ]mvKILLALLSPAMMERSps.org> 6/24/2007 12:45:37 AM This sounds like a VirtualPC issue, and I suspect you'll do better over on their newsgroup. I know Colin comes by here sometimes, but I haven't seen him lately. And I don't use VirtualPC - only Virtual Server. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "Eskimosound" <Eskimosound[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:F8D029B1-B283-474C-A6AD-B209A47F6507[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Internet Problem with Virtual PC 2007 Eskimosound 6/24/2007 10:38:00 PM Thanks Charlie, I've given up on it, it was only and experiment to see if it was any good...it is but seeing as it causes my internet to stop and I don't realy need it, I have unistalled it. I will wander over to their newsgroup if you know where it is but if not don't worry about it. Thanks.
