Virtual PC - numerous problems [Wrong forum I know]
-
Sunday, August 09, 2009 3:49 PMHi,
I'm having some Virtual PC issues and am hoping I can find some help here.
The first problem is that I can't find a Virtual PC forum on MSDN on which I can ask about my *real* problem. Does anyone know the best place to ask VPC questions?
If anyone fancies tackling what my real problem is then here it is. I have got Virtual PC RC running on Windows 7. Everything is working fine except for the fact that the mouse seems to be calibrated wrongly i.e. Wherever I click/right-click, that's not where the guest OS thinks I have clicked - instead (e.g.) the context menu that appears when I right-click on the desktop appears in a completely different place. This is a big problem as you can imagine.
I'm experiencing a few other oddities as well but for now I want to get this mouse problem sorted.
Any advice would be very much appreciated!!
cheers
Jamie

If this doesn't solve your problem, please post your question in the Windows 7 Virtualization forum found here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itprovirt/threads- Marked As Answer by Vincent HuModerator Monday, August 10, 2009 5:46 AM

Hi John (someone whose name I recognise - cool),
Actually the other problem I was going to come onto once this was solved is that I can't install the integration services. it complains about processes that need to be killed (including Windows Explorer) and when I kill them the installer just bugs out on me.
I'll try the forum you suggested.
cheers
