I need help with Microsoft virtual Machine. I setup a windows 2000 and a
Windows XP virtual machine. I'm using them to run different applications
that Windows Vista cannot run.

anyways, after backing up the virtual machine files to a external hard
drive, the windows 2000 virtual machine stopped working. does anyone have
any seggestion for fixing it. the virtual machine witll not boot. when i
click the "start" to start the virtual machine I just get a blank window.

if i boot the XP virtual machine and have set it up so that its 2nd hard
drive is the primary hard drive from the windows 2000 virtual machine. it
shows that all of the files from the windows 2000 virtual machine are still
there. does anyone have any ideas of why the windows 2000 virtual machine is
not starting. please help me fix this.

From,
Steven Wabik

I don't for the life of me understand why you included *any* XP groups, much
less three, and did NOT include the VPC group. But I thought this might give
you some hints.

I did not know that there was a vitual PC group. if i knew that, i would
have posted this question in that newsgroup as well. i looked through the
news groups and i did not see one for that.

At least he knows how to read English? He did check for a VPC group before
posting and didn't happen to hit on the magic string. You telling me you
have never spent five minutes searching for an MS group that you already
KNOW exists, trying to remember exactly what naming format MS pulled out of
their collective stupid-hat for that particular group of apps, OSes,
Servers, etc., etc.?
