| | moved a vhd from x86 to 64-bit system, is VMA any different withthe 64-bit Virtual PC? I just replaced my desktop with a 64-bit Vista system, and I installed the 64-bit version of Virtual PC 2007+SP1. I plan to run the same virtual machines as I previously ran on a 32-bit system with the x86 version of Virtual PC 2007+SP1. Do I need to update the Virtual Machine Additions? Are they the same in the x86 and 64-bit versions? Thanks, Bob |

Are they the same in the x86 and 64-bit versions? I have a dual boot XP x86 and Vista x64 machine, and I can use the same VM's on each. The VM's live on a common data partition used by both OS's. -- David Wilkinson Visual C++ MVP |
