    Windows 7 RC on Virtual PC 07

    Hey Guys!

    I am running 32-bit Windows 7 (7100) on a virtual machine using Virtual PC 07. I have a couple of basic questions. Forgive my ignorance as I am new to the tech world:

    Does Virtual PC use memory when the application itself is closed? I would assume that when Virtual PC is closed it isn't utilizing the 1 gig I allocated to it, thus my host machine is free to use that gig.



    I am having internet connection problems on the virtual machine. To my knowledge, it only shows a LAN connection. Could anyone shed some light on how the virtual PC connects to the net? Does it recognize my host machines wireless adapter?

    Thanks in advance for any answers!
