| | Newbie question! Please forgive me for this question: I was asked to provide a PC with 2 sets of keyboard and mouse, 1 for the primary user to access the "host" PC and the other set to access the "virtual PC" by other users. Is this really possible? Your help is greatly appreciated. BN |

| | Re: Newbie question! Not with Virtual PC, you need some kind of hardware product that controls and allows more than one keyboard/mouse combo and software to host 2 users. Virtual PC is for 1 users to use more than one OS at a time. -- Bob Comer On Wed, 3 Jun 2009 15:01:25 -0700, "Bill N" <billn@xxxxxx> wrote: Quote: >Please forgive me for this question: >I was asked to provide a PC with 2 sets of keyboard and mouse, 1 for the >primary user to access the "host" PC and the other set to access the >"virtual PC" by other users. >Is this really possible? >Your help is greatly appreciated. > >BN |

This is probably not what you want, but if the computer is on a network, the virtual machine(or machines) cab be accessed from another physical computer using Remote Desktop. -- David Wilkinson Visual C++ MVP |
