I keep getting error code for dell system every few minutes. Did windows update now system has stopped updates until I insert driver disk that I no longer have. What can I do to fix problem?

You must turn off the indexing for the C: drive to get the CPU from 100% to 17%. Click on Start -> Computers. Left click on the C:Drive and click Properties. Uncheck indexing at the bottom of the dialog.

Ravi -

You will just get Aero Basic - but you may want to checkout http://blogs.msdn.com/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2006/02/28/540822.aspx for information about getting Glass (kind of) under Virtual PC.

on VPC, it emulates all that average hardware, will i still get Aero Glass on build 5342 or will i get Aero Basic? And thanks for the optimization tips, that should help a lot...

Ben,

Slightly off-topic but do the Machine Additions that come with Virtual Server 2005 R2 make any significance difference to other non-Vista OS Virtual PCs or should I continue to use the ones that ship with VirtualPC 2004 SP1 for XP VPCs?

Why should I use that when I can use VMWare as it is FREE
