Installing Vista on Virtual PC
Windows Vista will install on Virtual PC 2004. However, it seems to be pretty much unuseable, as it just seems to lock the CPU useage at 100%. If anyone has found differently, or knows a solution to that I'd be very interested to hear it.
If anyone wants to try it for themselves, you need to boot up the virtual machine with a Win98 or ME Startup floppy first and Fdisk the virtual drive (there is no need to format it). Vista cannot be installed otherwise.
Allow a good couple of hours for the install. And after it's done, you'll only get 800 x 600 resoultion with 4-bit colour until the Virtual Machine Additions are installed (from the Action menu).
Nick.
