Look at the bottom of the Edit Menu for the settings for your current Virtual PC. When the Settings window opens click on "Disk 1", and click the "Choose..." button. This will show you where your active disk image is. Bear in mind that VPC 5 can have multiple Disk Images, and you can choose between them by setting up multiple Virtual PCs. > I recently bought a PC CD which is not visible to VPC 5 but the Mac > can see it, and it does run on a PC.

Ha bloody ha! > Yes, I can see how that would be a huge concern. Of course! Let's see...I've just bought this second hand PC and I need a copy of Windows 98. Why don't I just go out and spend twice the amount I would normally spend and buy a Windows emulator for a Macintosh, just so I can get the "free" copy of Windows that comes with it? I know I'll never use the emulator software, but boy, I've really put one over on Micro$oft :-) -- Peter Hinchliffe Apwin Computer Services FileMaker Pro Solutions Developer Perth, :::::::::::::::::::::::: Western Australia Phone (618) 9332 6482 Fax (618) 9332 0913 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mac because I prefer it -- Windows because I have to.
