UnderTheGun Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Greetings from Korea!!!Will hitting alt-tab to make it full screen help solve your problem?BTW, does anyone know how to mount an ISO image? I've been using Daemon Tools to mount my images, but was wondering if the functionality is already in VPC. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Yes, using VPC you need to "capture an image" to mount the ISO.Dump VPC - go VMware, its far faster and easier to handle (ISO mounting is easy too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eirogge Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Yes, using VPC you need to "capture an image" to mount the ISO.Dump VPC - go VMware, its far faster and easier to handle (ISO mounting is easy too).The problem with VirtualPC is that full acceleration isn't enabled by default.If the VirtualPC window hasn't got the focus, it will run veeeeery slow. Setting VirtualPC up correctly, it runs a lot faster but I agree in switching to VMware. You will notice another grow in speed and usability.With VMware the installation needs only as long as it takes on a real machine, which is quite impressive for a VM.

webmedic Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 possibly but I also have a legit copy of virt pc that I got from micrsoft. They hand out copies for system devs. I also dont have a legit copy of vmware and am not about to pay for it. So unless somebody can point out a legit way to get it free I dont think I'll be using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnderTheGun Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 It's too late for me to go into VMWare. I got too many virtual machines already built in VPC. Thanks, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
