New OS in Virtual PC

[v0id]

Hi all,

I have one problem! I installed Virtual PC and XP Mode and now i don't know how to install new OS! I want Linux to install and there is no options for new Virtual PC or OS!

Anyone? :huh:

Go to Start, All Programs, Windows Virtual PC and click Windows Virtual PC

At top of window should be button for "Create virtual machine".

Rather than it's own stand-alone GUI window....they integrated the functionality into the Windows Explorer shell. Personally I don't like it...but I guess they are shooting for consistency.

Follow these steps:

• Open C:\your_username\Virtual Machines
• Click Create virtual machine
  
• Give the new vm a name and location where it is to be saved
  
• Decide how much RAM you want to allocate this vm
  
• As default, the new vm is dynamical. If that's OK to you, click Create
  
• Go back to Virtual Machines windows, click the vm you created and choose Settings
  
• Click DVD drive on the left pane, on the right pane choose an ISO image if you want to install from your HD, or choose a CD / DVD drive if you want to install from a disc.
  
• Double click the new vm to run it

I'm always telling to check tutorials section. Why I didn't now, is unclear. Of course you are right, so here's my modified answer to OP:

Check the tutorials section!
