That's a little unfortunate as I use VS to replicate my production environment and what I'd normally use to validate patches and SP's.
I really hope SP1 for VS arrives ASAP.

It might be running a little bit slower, but overall it functions.

I had the same problem, but installing VMAdditions of the SP1 from Virtual PC 2004 did the trick for me.

My system seems to be as responsive as before.

This updates the additions to 13.306 from 13.206.
But I guess, you have to try this at your own risk...

Hello! I have a Windows XP SPI ISO image and I am tring to use this image to install XP as a guest Operating system for a virtual machine in Virtual Server 2005. When I try to attach the ISO image to the Virtual CD/DVD and then connect to the virtual machine using the VRMC, I just keep getting a blue screen which says Windows setup unfortunately, windows never starts to set up. If you can talk me through this, I would appreciate it. My e-mail address is f_akinyemi@yahoo.com
