Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode in Windows 7

I just bought a new PC Pro WIN 7 with the ability to run WIN XP in a virtual machine.  It told me I have to go on a MS site and follow the instructions to validate that the installation was valid. Then I was told to download the 3 following programs without any explanation as to what they were.  The programs are:

windowsXPMode_N_en - us.exe

windowsXPMode_en - us.exe

GenuineCheck.exe

So I downloaded them.  GenuineCheck.exe I wanted to save a password in the Clipboard to use in step 2.  I couldn't go to step 2.

I installed windowsXPMode_en - us.exe.  I can now run a virtual XP in WINDOWS 7 PC.

I have not (yet?) installed to windowsXPMode_N_en - us.exe.  I don't know if I have to, anyone know?

Currently, I can open the Virtual PC in XP mode.  I transferred only a set of 32-bit up to now to see if it will work.  To do this, sort of.  Kind of means that the game works, but it is gross or difficult to read data, the colors and the resolution is bad.  On the side of WIN 7, colors and resolution are very good.  What the first step before installing Visual Basic 6.

In addition, while I have an anti demo virus installed by the supplier of the computer, it doesn't seem to work in Virtual PC.  Is this a matter of concern, or am I protected by WIN 7?

Thank you

This is not necessary:

windowsXPMode_N_en - us.exe

This is for clients running Windows 7 Pro N

Here is everything you need:

1 Windows6. 1 - KB958559 - x 64 or x 86 architecture that you run

Restart the system, and then install:

2 WindowsXPMode_en-we

Both Windows XP Mode and Windows Virtual PC can be downloaded from http://www.windows.com/business/downloads.

    Only, you would have the same problems with 32-bit software in a 64 bit environment where it may or may not work as the others. XP mode is reserved for people who have a software who refuse, for some reason, to upgrade and that run only under Windows XP. But if you consider that Windows XP was introduced in 2001 and it is now 2009 and 1 other OS released and another is about to release... it's time to upgrade. Jonathan Matthis aka "7test" on MSN QnA

  • I get an error "the disk hard virtual parent is in a saved state. Discard the saved state or stop the virtual machine and try again. "during the installation of XP mode.

    I have Win7 Pro SP1 x 64.  I downloaded WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe (from Microsoft downloads) and run it.  The installation seems to work OK (I've specified a different location for the parent virtual hard disk file).  Then, installation happening and I provide the information requested (name of user and password for the XP Mode), updates Windows and OK to the issue of sharing.  The installation program then reports the following error:

    The disk hard virtual parent is in a saved state.  Discard the saved state or stop the virtual machine and try again.

    I get the error even if I try manually configure XP Mode (use the Setup Wizard).  I downloaded the installer XPMode (3 times) and reinstalled several times, always with the same result.  If it helps, I can't locate anywhere .vsv file.

    Any idea what's going on?

  • What is the right way to expand the virtual disk and then the OS partition?

    I have a Windows XP operating system in a virtual machine VMware.  I have

    you want to increase the size of the hard drive.  It currently has a 50 GB

    partition on a 50 GB VHD.  I increase the size of the

    50 GB to 100 GB in VMware virtual hard drive.  Then, can I use

    Windows disk management to increase the size of my partition of the

    side OS to use all the 100GB he sees now?  Or will

    corrupt my data or cause a problem as I really need to

    use a third party tool like EAUSUS inside Windows to extend Windows

    on the size of the virtual hard disk?

    In fact the way you describe, resize the virtual disk and then developing the partition are the way to go. But there are some things that you should be

    aware of.

    -If the VHD is on an IDE controller, you may not be able to resize the virtual disk. In this case use the converter. With the converter, you can resize the disk including the partition and - if desired - replace the IDE controller by a SCSI controller.

    -If you have only one partition under XP (that is, drive c :)) you cannot extend the partition with the diskmanager/diskpart. In this case, start your virtual machine from a CD/DVD Vista/Windows 7 in Repair Mode, open a command line and use "diskpart" from there to "extend" your partition.

  • REALLY stupid question about virtual machines and disks of cancellations.

    I'm a bit hesitant to ask this question because it might make me look stupid, but...

    When I'm done using Virtual PC and a virtual machine running Windows XP Pro with Vista 64 Home Premium because the host os, often I did not any significant changes to the hard disk of the virtual machine.

    What I save gets saved to a network share on my server for files and printing from Win98 and saved on a flash drive.

    Assuming that I do no configuration changes or anything else I want to keep, is there a reason barely stopping properly when I 'cancellations discs' enabled?

    Any reason, I can not save time by pressing the 'X' button and choose 'disable and remove changes '?

    I am aware of patches, but took me to inform me of the patches, and I can get patches when it's convenient for me and I always validate changes when I install the patches. I'm not using it for anything other than my classes of the school of the evening for the time being, so it is not much of a value of protection on the virtual machine, and I used to write papers on the host operating system. I just use the virtual machine to play with the admin tools in an environment where I can easily fix it a massive screw-up without spending hours to reinstall Windows.

    Hey SlickRCBD,.

    Not a stupid question at all! :)

    It's very well hit the X when you have activated the disks of cancellations. And corruption or problems with the active virtual machine will be resolved when using the drive to cancel it.

  • List virtual machines and their DNS server settings

    I try to list virtual machines and their primary and secondary DNS server addresses.  Are the cmdlets in vmware that can do this, or would I need to use the invoke-script command.  I have the list of virtual machines and I want to list them all with their DNS server addresses.

    I tried to use the wmi objects such as:

    Win32_networkadapterconfiguration get-wmiobject - computername "servername |

    Select name, DNSServerSearchOrder

    It would give me the specific server name and addresses of dns.

    But I need the list of servernames which I would like to list some and their

    DNSserversearchorder settings (DNS settings)

    I tried to put the servernames list in a text file using

    Get - vm | Export-csv C:\computername.txt - notype

    Then I used the get-content command and the pipe in the get-wmiobject

    command like below:

    $servers = get-Content c:\computername.txt

    ForEach ($server in $servers)

    {get-wmiobject Win32_networkadapterconfiguration - computername $server

    | where {$_.} IPEnabled-fits 'True'} | Select-object

    name, DNSServerSearchOrder

    But when I run this command fails with errors such as a pipe empty

    element is not allowed.  I don't know if the above script has all synatx

    error or what is the best way to get a list of servers and their dns server

    Parameters.

    I know the wmiobject maybe out of this range in these newsgroups but there at - it a script in powershell, vmware or windows powershell to get a list of servername (which are mostly VMS) and their DNS server settings.

    Try the following script to get the DNS search order:

    Get-Content c:\computername.txt | `
    ForEach-Object {
      Get-WMIObject Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration -Computername $_ | `
        Where-Object {$_.IPEnabled -match "True"} | `
        Select-Object -property DNSHostName,DNSServerSearchOrder
    }

    This is because the server is in a DMZ and no network management is provided.

    Any suggestions are welcome.

    You use VMware permission.

    First to create Windows user (may be a local user on VC or a user AD).

    Then on your virtual machine (in the authorization tab) add a role (e.g. VM user).
