Vista - saved state

I am using vpc 2007 sp1. I have the virtual machine stored on a removable
hd. When I save the state on an xp machine I can not open the saved state on
vista and have to delete the saved state. If I save it in the vista host
then it works fine in xp. any ideas?

My first guess would be some kind of permissions issues with Vista not
being able to open the saved state.

Drag the vm from the Virtual Machine Console list onto the Vista desktop.
That will create a shortcut with a Run As Administrator option on its
context menu. Then when you want to wake it up doubleclick on the shortcut
and run it with Run As Administrator and see if that lets you restore from
saved state.

Thanks it looks like it was a permission thing. Turned user account control
off on the vista pc and it works fine.

I don't think you have to go that far. Try what I suggested with UAC on.

do us all the courtesy of removing at least some of the quoted text.

Did you really need 30 plus lines of quoted text for a single line
response?
