    windows XP mode is erratic & not working


    I installed wxp mode last night, which was a mission in and of itself.
    When I first used it, I could access the HDDs on the host computer, and I was able to copy over some files without a hitch.
    Now, however, it has decided that I cannot access any of these folders, and there is apparently no way to find my virtual HDD so I can't move files over that way.

    Basically, I have no way to communicate between the two computers, because the virtual PC won't recognise or access my USB drive either.
    Why did it work at first, then suddenly decide that it wouldn't?

    Check the "Integration Features".

    i came up with an even more elegant solution... i deleted xp mode.
    too much of a resource hog and wayyyy too unreliable.

    but thanks anyway.
