I could used to run xp mode with no problem, however i now get the following error message when i attempt to start it up.

''Cannot start Windows Virtual PC while another virtualisation software is running. Please close the other virtualisation software and try again''

I have no other virtualisation software running.

I have tried the following to no avail....

Boot into the BIOS on the host computer and confirm that hardware virtualization is still enabled

Turned of xp mode hibernation

Redownloaded xp mode


Any help would be greatly appreciated

2. Click "Show Processes from all users"
