From: In-Thought on 7 Jun 2010 10:46 Waited for the screen to turn black and clicked on Edit and Settings and only see "Pointer integration". there is no other reference to integration save components. I am also running HyperV on a Server 2008 machine. Is it possible to transfer the VM there hopefully providing better results? I'm new at this and will be taking it slow.

From: Robert Comer on 7 Jun 2010 11:42 I just looked at your first message and it says you aren't running Windows Virtual PC, and I am assuming it's VPC 2007, so it's a totally different problem than I was thinking, so my mistake. My guess is you're probably going to have to either start over or try another password breaker unfortunately. And yes, you can transfer an XP VM to Hyper-H, but you need to uninstall the VPC Additions, copy it across, and assume it will ask for activation again as the hardware is quite different, and then after you copy the .vhd to the Hyper-V server, you'll have to create a new VM and once it's started, you can install the Hyper-V integration components. Doing this really isn't going to help with the lockout problem though... -- Bob Comer <Microsoft MVP - Virtual Machine> "In-Thought" <InThought(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:16A04443-792A-4FB9-AF8E-8FDA7BC4BCF5(a)microsoft.com... > Waited for the screen to turn black and clicked on Edit and Settings and > only > see "Pointer integration". there is no other reference to integration save > components. > > I am also running HyperV on a Server 2008 machine.
