Virtual PC cannot find MSXML 6 - Error on Windows Vista

.... This is a "Hello World !!" kinda blog for me.


So Please wel come me in Blogging world.

To start with..

I had installed MS Virtual PC 2007 on my laptop having Windows Vista and when I tried running this Virtual PC, it prompted me :



As the error message complains, rather suggests I tried reinstalling Virtual PC and also installing MSXML 6 and tried again.

For many, trying as suggested above works fine. Not much Pain.
If you are among those many, this post ends here.

But for me, result the same Prompt. No luck. Strange (suggestions..)!!

Well, let's proceed....

After looking here and there for about an hour and trying above MS suggestions couple of times, at the end I came to know that there are two files missing in my File Strore in system. I found these two files in my collegues' system. and copied those at C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Virtual PC on my laptop.

And Magic !!! It worked.

Those files are : VPCKeyboard.dll and Options.xml.

If you come across this than I wish you are lucky enough to have helpfull collegue around you to give these files. :)

Have a nice day !!

Happy coding__
