Installing FC4 in Virtual PC 4

I recently installed FC4 on my laptop in Virtual PC 4. I've gotten the display problem worked out but not the horrible delay in the mouse pointer movement. Also, the keyboard is extremely sensitive such that many letters get repeated like I'm holding down the key. I have 256M allocated for memory for VPC instead of the default 128M. The mouse delay make it unusable. Any suggestions?

Yes, install FC4 on your laptop then use VMware to install Windows

No, really the problem is with your VPC configuration and not with Linux, you would get better help posting this problem in one of the many Windows VPC forums.

Solved my own problem. Don't install SP1 for Virtual PC 2004. FC4 works fine without it, even in XP Home instead of XP Pro.

Congratulations! I'm glad you got it resolved.
