Integration Features Error

[shaha]

Hello. After XPMode working flawlessly, it is all of a sudden giving me errors. When I lanuch it, it takes a very long time, the green bar goes all the way till the end where it says "Starting the virtual machine", then it errors out stating, "Could not enable integration features". Nothing was changed. I cant use my XPMode applications either.

Any ideas????

You should try a system restore in your XPmode virtual machine .

how do i access the bios of the virtual pc?

In Vmware, I use VM > Power > Power on to bios . I guess there is some similar mechanism in XPmode too.

Its the DEL key when the virtual pc comes up....
I just uninstalled and reinstall virtual pc entirely. I had to sacrafice all my installed applications; however, that didnt help. When I now launch virtual pc, it tries to boot using the network adapter as if there is no hard disk. It eventually stop and says to select a proper boot device...please help.....

XP mode is a Pre-installed guest os ... so if it is a problem at the first run, better you download Virtual PC, XP Mode and updates once again ... the previous download might be corrupted . A helpful tutorial about all of this is here ....

Thanks. I did just that. I uninstalled everything and re-downloaded and install again. I lost all my apps but thats fine. I couldnt use it anyway.
Another question: do you know if Microsoft has an official place where people can get support for the virtual pc?
