ok. So do you deploy that vm like others? When i try to use our xp image via sccm/osd the whoel thing locks up. IS that how you get your corp xp image on the host system? You pxe boot it?
If so - do you need some sort of driver package or something for virtual pc and xp? ________________________________ From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Christopher Catlett Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2013 3:41 PM To: mssms@lists.myitforum.com Subject: [mssms] RE: xpmode - if using it, how you rolling it out? For my users that still need xp, I gave them a vm that is managed just like any other machine. We are heavily virtualized, about 40% vdi on the desktop-side and 95% on the server-side.

I've been told med-v is a pain in the butt to manage. How do you deal with xpmode and all the security issues? (no anti virus and so on). You just let users set it up, then force the security apps on it? ________________________________ From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Christopher Catlett Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2013 2:58 PM To: mssms@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:mssms@lists.myitforum.com> Subject: [mssms] RE: xpmode - if using it, how you rolling it out?

You don't; it wasn't meant to be rolled out. It is a one-off solution for home users and small businesses. If you need to roll out XP virtual machines -- God help you first because virtual or physical, April 2014 is end of life. The real answer though is that you should be using Med-V instead.

I'm wondering if folks are just rolling out the generic xp from microsoft or something or did they built a corporate xp image for it and roll that out? If so - do you need special nic and mass storage for that cause mine keeps bombing right after it lays down the wim and reboots. ________________________________ This message (including any attachments) is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is non-public, proprietary, privileged, confidential, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law or may constitute as attorney work product.
