Re: Virtual PC XP Mode to Virtualbox Problem
Is there a reason you think it should run?

Re: Virtual PC XP Mode to Virtualbox Problem
XP mode typically creates linked clones of the XP template, so you're missing the base VHD.
But all that is moot, because the XP mode VM will only activate on the original Win7 PC. You need a new license and CD key if you want to use it elsewhere.
