Windows 7’s XP Mode is essentially a Windows XP virtual machine that runs in the new Windows 7 version of Virtual PC. This new edition of Virtual PC includes cool features such as seamless windows. The main reason I’m interested in this is to run older versions of Internet Explorer for testing purposes. IE8’s compatibility mode does a pretty good job of emulating IE7 but there are differences, so I investigated how to get “real” IE7 running under Windows 7’s XP Mode, without losing IE6. read more...

Advanced Integration of Virtual PC 7 / XP Mode(wunger.spaces.live.com)

submitted by crpietschmann(11.3k) 2 years, 3 months ago

VMLauncher allows you to open any file or folder from your local host system in a specified Virtual Machine. This improves the integration of Windows Virtual PC. There is no need anymore to open the Virtual Machine in Desktop Mode to install a new application! You can open any program, file or folder directly from your Windows 7 Desktop. Just right click on the application, file or folder and select the “Open in Virtual Machine” and it will open in the selected Virtual Machine but will run directly on your Windows 7 Desktop. read more...

Virtualization on the Desktop: VirtualPC 2007 and Hyper-V(pietschsoft.com)

submitted by crpietschmann(11.3k) 3 years, 9 months ago

About a year ago I started to use VirtualPC 2007 on my Vista x64 box to allow me to run other instances of OS's within isolation without requiring me to purchase anymore hardware for my desk. It's actually rather simple to do and makes it extremely easy to roll back any of your systems to a previous state in case they get screwed up by installing beta software or for any other reason. The latest from Microsoft is Hyper-V for Windows Server 2008. I'm still reading up on exactly what Hyper-V is, and what it's benefit are over Virtual Server 2005 and VirtualPC 2007. read more...
