OK, I realize I ventured onto the dark side of the force here, but the fact is I don't need more computers so I won't get another IBM or upgrade the one that I have. I do occasionally have a need to run IBM Software so I went out and purchased a copy of virtual PC 4.0 off E-Bay .
Well, virtual PC 4.0 is supposed to be the last version of virtual PC that will run on upgraded computers. The program installed properly but unfortunately when you try to start it, the computer refuses to let you select anything with your mouse. My only option is to force quit the program. No dialogue screens appear, you are simply not able to select anything with your mouse. This scenario continues even with the base system software and the extensions disabled. Connectix has discontinued product support for this version of the program. If anybody out there is using this version of virtual PC and can give me some aid in getting it running on my machine I would appreciate the help. I have an XLR8 G4 527 mhz, 1gigabyte ram, 16 meg ATI rage graphics card, V S T card etc. etc..... One thing that I should mention, is that in my other S 900, which is an XLR8 G3 400 mhz, the virtual PC software seems to run perfectly. At least as perfectly as IBM Software can run.
