  • Unable to Login Microsoft Virtual Academy Home page

    Hi !
    It might not be relevant in here to ask, but i am Unable to Login Microsoft Virtual Academy Home page since last 4 months. Have tried FireFox, Chrome & IE with Win 7 & Win Xp & Win 2003. But not being able to login with any of the combinations.
    Error Message : Our server is having a problem. We're working to fix it as soon as we can, so try again in a few minutes.
    I didn't find a way how to contact MVA, may be i need to involve Ed with them, but i know he is already too busy with the Forums. So can anybody provide me link to concerned MVA person or may be forward this to him / her.
    Thanks, Hasham Niaz

    I thought I'd just suggest a few more ideas.
    Right-click IE and Run as Administrator.
    Install Silverlight in your web browser. Get it here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx If it won't install, maybe you are not running it as Administrator.
    Make sure you are not automatically logged in with another Live ID account, such as Outlook.com, Hotmail.com, Office 365, or cached credentials in Windows. Here is how:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Remove-stored-passwords-certificates-and-other-credentials
    Perhaps just create and use a new Hotmail account.
    See if someone else who can log into the site can use your machine.
    If you know someone who can log onto site, see if you can log in on their machine.
    Good luck!

  • Microsoft Virtual Academy is displayed in French :(((

    Hello,
    I don't speak French and the official language in the country that I live (Mauritius) is English. And whenever I go on
    www.microsoftvirtualacademy.com it is displaying the page in French instead of English WITHOUT POSSIBILITY TO CHANGE LANGUAGE! Am I banned from Microsoft Virtual Academy only because I live in a country where
    the local Microsoft office prefers another language than the official language? I REFUSE to learn French
    Please Advice

    The only choice you have is to set your country to "Not Listed Country" as according to web resources, although English is spoken in Mauritius, the official language is French therefore it appears Microsoft have used this.
    You could also reach out to MVA via
    https://www.facebook.com/MVALatinoamerica?fref=tsor
    [email protected] and ask them to implement an English version for your country.

  • Solaris 10 5/08 x Microsoft Virtual PC

    I have tried to install Solaris 10 5/08 on Microsoft Virtual PC, but after selecting Solaris on first screen I have received this message:
    WARNING: Time of Day clock error: reason [Stalled]. -- Stopped tracking Time Of Day clock.
    Does anyone know how to solve?
    Thanks,

    ive seen clock issues on linux under vmware and found this off this link [http://www.vmware.com/products/beta/esx-vc/knownissues.html]
    Solaris warning "Stopped tracking Time of Day clock"
    Description: Solaris might report one of the following messages:
    WARNING: Time of Day clock error: reason [Stalled].
    -- Stopped tracking Time Of Day clock.
    WARNING: Time of Day clock error: reason [Jumped].
    -- Stopped tracking Time Of Day clock.
    Workaround: The warnings are harmless, and you can simply ignore them. Alternatively, you can, do the following:
    1. suppress them by adding the following line to /etc/system in your VM:
    set tod_validate_enable = 0
    2. Install VMware Tools in your virtual machineand turn on time synchronization to ensure that time is accurate.
    for sure since this is msft stuff, you cant do step 2

  • Microsoft Virtual PC 2004

    Hi,
    I am a new Mac user and have Word, Excel and PP on my powerbook but do not know if I have "Microsoft Virtual PC 2004." I am going to take online courses at a university and I am told I need this. How can I check to see if I have this? I performed a search in spotlight but nothing came up. Thank you so much for your help

    On the contrary, Microsoft Office 2004 Professional does come with a copy of Virtual PC with Windows XP Professional. So if a person goes to the store that sells the Mac version of Office, in the Black Box, you get a copy of VPC 7. Here's a link just for proof...http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/office2004/howtobuy/howtobuy.aspx?pid=howt obuy
    It's best to research before answering a question that is not true.

  • Microsoft Virtual PC 2007

    Hello, I was wondering if I install a clean version of Windows XP using bootcamp, will I be able to install Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 on it? I've been reading that this cannot work on the Intel chip. Please let me know as I am interested in purchasing the MacBook, but I also need to do DEV on the machine, thus I need to us MC VPC 2007.
    Thanks.

    welcome to macbook forum.
    it should work just fine since boot camp with XP or vista, will act as a PC laptop.
    But the problem might be when you have to select the partition for installing your other guest OS, unless you point that guess OS (win 2000, another XP or else) to external HD if virtual PC support guess os from external connection.
    Good Luck.

  • Installing Arch in Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP1

    Firstly, I'm very new to linux and am looking to try out as many distros as possible before deciding on which one to learn from.  I want a simple but powerful distro which has minimal packages which will allow me to develop a system myself, learning how the OS works along the way.  Arch linux looks like the one.
    I've tried to install from the ftp iso "archlinux-2009.02-ftp-i686" onto Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP1 on my Pentium 4 3.4GHz PC.  I get a "Kernal panic - not syncing: Attempting to kill the idle task! message" after a message "unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x1db", a hex dump and "EIP: [<c010982c>] text_poke_early+0x4c/0x70 SS:ESP 0068:c042fe90" message.
    Don't know whether this means anything or I've missed something obvious.  Does anyone have an experience of this type of install?  Have I downloaded the wrong ISO?
    Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

    Arch does seem to have a few issues when running in a VM. More so than when using actual metal.
    That should be the correct CD.
    I never had much luck with MS Virtual PC. Maybe try VirtualBOX from Sun?
    I don't know if your pentium 4 has support for hardware virtualisation. Without hardware support the performance will be less than impressive and I found I had more issues without hardware virtualisation when running vms.

  • Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adaptor Driver Issue

    Hi,
    Got a brand new Windows 7 PC. Experienced one BSOD when searching network for other devices, and another flat out freeze when Windows Update asked me to restart. My PC under devices and printers showed that it needed troubleshooting. Windows identified the Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adaptor as the problem, suggesting a reinstall of the driver- to which it attempted, and failed. I have thus simply uninstalled this device from device manager. I expect Windows will find it again on reboot.
    What is this adaptor, and do I need to worry about it? I'm connecting through Wifi with no problems, but I do plan to connect through a wire soon, once I can get hold of one long enough..
    This is 64bit Windows 7, Core 2 Quad, 6gb RAM. I have added no new hardware.
    Thanks
    Ashley

    I'm having an adapter issue too.
    My 11 year old Dell laptop running WinXP easily connected to any wireless network even if it was 3 blocks away or further.  And that is with a cheap Airlink101 usb wireless adapter I found online for 12.00 USD.
    Now I purchased a Dell Inspiron 15R, running Windows 7 64bit, 4 gigs of ram, 500gb hard drive, with an intel wirless adapter and I am lucky if I connect to anything.
    Now I will not throw my credentials out there and say "I am smart and you are stupid so this should just work" but I will say this:  I started tinkering with computers back when the only choice for a home pc was a Radio Shack TRS-80, Atari 400 or 800,
    or the Commodore 64, and some others.  (I owned the Atari 800xl)
    While I was not fortunate enough to attend a 4 year college, I did learn the ropes and ultimately attended a computer 'school' to get my professional diploma so I could get a job in some field.  I started on the help desk and worked through different
    departments, ultimately ending up in Information Security. 
    I will not pretend to be an expert but I do consider myself a skilled power user, or more specifically, a professional - paid - highly experienced - computer Ninja - of all computer areas.
    So I will leave everyone with this, the WiFi functionality should simply work.  Yes, there are hundreds of adapters and hundreds of millions of lines of code from thousands of manufacturers that work against this but this is not curing a disease. 
    I will not buy an Apple computer but this is why many folks jump the Windows ship, because they tire of banging their heads against the wall after paying 500, 600, 700, 800+ dollars for something that should at the very least get them on the internet. 
    This leads me to another question, how much should we consumers with our "grimy hands" spend to get something that works?  Which laptop or home pc comes with a different/better wireless adapter then what we have?  My understanding was that most peripherals
    while manufactured by dozens of companies, still rely on a handful of common chips/chipsets.
    I don't care how cheap the technology is, or how expensive.  I have used cheap components and I have used expensive components.  When running Windows 3.x, Windows 98, Windows XP, and Windows 7, and even Ubunto, or Sabayon linux distros, you always
    find issues.  Hence one reason why Apple likes to control their software by only installing on their hardware.
    I don't see anyone on here blaming Microsoft.  I am a proponent of Microsoft.  Maybe even a die-hard, being a Zune HD owner and a Windows Mobile phone owner (crazy, right?).  But people are here looking for a solution not a lecture.
    So if somebody - be it Microsoft, Intel, or the driver signing authority, Dell, or whomever, can help then please do so.  Please figure out why the 1 commonality here - Microsoft Virtual Miniport Adapter, seems to be related to this issue in some way. 
    We know it may not be your fault Miniport, but you sure aren't a poplular fella here!
    Removing tongue from cheek...Done.

  • Novell Netware 4.11 on Microsoft Virtual Pc 2004

    Hello,
    I have Novell Netware 4.11 SP9 running in a Microsoft Virtual PC 2004.
    I can not get the network card to detect or work. This looks to be the
    closest support group in the list that might have an answer.
    The Virtual PC creates virtual hardware for the Intel / Dec 21140 network
    card.
    I know poeple have got 4.11 SP8a to work in VPC 2004 but I can't seem to
    get it to work. Intel suggest I need:
    NBI.NLM v2.25 9/17/98
    MSM.NLM v3.95 5/12/99
    ETHERTSM.NLM v3.8 3/1/99
    Which I now have. I have tried numerous Intel and even some old Dec lan
    drivers. Here is an example of the error.
    LOAD SYS:SYSTEM\DC21X4.LAN SLOT=3 TX_THRESHOLD=4 RX_BUFFERS=5
    FRAME=ethernet_802.3 NAME=DC21X4_1_E83
    Loading module DC21X4.LAN

    DC21X4-NW-050: No PCI board found in machine!

    Module DC21X4.LAN NOT loaded
    Any Ideas ?
    (I have loaded the nbi, msm and ethertsm files manually but still do not
    get card detection)
    Thanks

    I know nothing about VirtualPC and you will find many people here who know
    more about VMWare which I could recommend.
    Based upon my VMWare experience, make sure the NIC is configured Private/Host
    Only or NAT.
    It must be configured to appear directly connected to your LAN.

  • Device Manager in Win: Does Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort Adapter Matter?

    I'm a  novice user just wondering about configuring devices in Windows 7 bootcamp partition.
    My Apple iMac computer shows as a device in the Windows device manager with a yellow exclamation mark.
    The driver is Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter.
    The error is "device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)'.
    Attempting to troubleshoot, by updating the driver doesn't solve the problem, as Windows can't automatically locate the driver.
    However nothing seems to be actually functioning wrong - internet connectivity and wifi connections are stable and the partition is accessible.
    I'm also using MacDrive 8 to access my Mac drives from Windows, again this seems to be working smoothly.
    Can I just ignore this as one of the quirks of Bootcamp 3.2?
    I have my PhD work on the Windows side so just wanting to be sure I can safely ignore the problem.
    I've asked this question in the Intel iMac forum, wihtout any luck, just thought other Bootcamp users might be able to shine some light on the issue?
    In detail:
    Bootcamp; 3.2
    Win OS: Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit
    Mac OS: 10.6.7
    Computer: Intel Core Duo 3.06GHz 8 GB RAM
    Installed Driver Date and Version: 21/06/2006 and 6.1.7600.16385

    Hi,
    If they remained after uninstall from device manager, run these commands with administrator privilege:
    netsh wlan stop hostednetwork
    netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=disallow

  • Archlinux on Microsoft Virtual Server - installs but doesn't boot

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to sneak Arch into our organization, but as we're very Windows-focussed it may take some time. I thought I would be able to install it as a virtual machine on our Virtual Server, but I haven't had any luck.
    The system seemed to install fine, but when I restart the machine and take out the virtual CD it just sits there with a blank screen, but using 97% CPU.
    Here's how I installed the system:
    Physical machine: Core II Duo 2GHz running Windows Vista 32-bit, with 2GB memory and a 120GB IDE drive.
    1) Setup a virtual machine - it has 256MB memory, and a 100GB dynamically-expanding IDE virtual hard disk.
    2) Attached the Don't Panic 2007.08 BASE ISO to the Virtual Machine, and started her up.
    3) Started the installer with arch ide-legacy. This is because I've run through this install a few times now and without this option it complains that it can't read from /dev/null a lot and that it has trouble writing to VHD.
    4) Did an auto-prepare and selected all of the defaults to partition the virtual hard disk.
    5) Selected all of the base packages and installed them.
    6) Did the "configure system", and left everything as the defaults except setting the root password.
    7) Installed the kernel, again leaving the defaults in the config file.
    8) Installed the bootloader. Last time I used GRUB, but it sat there saying it was installing for over 2 hours. This time I tried LILO and it installed in less than a few seconds.
    After all that was done I exited the installer and did a reboot. Now it sits at 97% CPU usage constantly and shows nothing but a blank screen. Using ALT+F1-F5 shows nothing.
    Microsoft Virtual Server has support for the Red Hat and other distributions so I would have expected ArchLinux to work. Has anyone else had success in getting Arch to run on Virtual Server? And is there anything I did wrong in my installation?
    Cheers,
    Paul

    Well, according to this virtual pc 2004 supports archlinux 0.7.1 and 0.7.2 .
    They claim virtual server 2005 uses the same core as virtual pc 2004 , so it should work.
    Try installing with one of the previous isos, see ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/iso .

  • Running SAP on Microsoft Virtual Servers

    Is anyone running SAP on Microsoft Virtual Servers?  If so, what has been your experience with this?  We are installing NetWeaver 2004s on three virtual servers (running on the same Physical Windows server). We are using the Microsoft Virtual Server software (not VM Ware).
    Thanks in advance for any information.

    Check Note 674851 - Virtualization on Windows:
    VMware, GSX Server, VMware workstation, Microsoft Virtual Server
    Due to their restriction to 32-bit, single CPU and host/guest operation, these virtualization products are not suitable for productive SAP applications.
    It may be advisable to use one of these products to operate non-production systems (demo systems, test systems, development systems and so on).
    I would not use Microsoft Virtual Server for productive installations, additionally, depending on the database used, it may or may not supported by the database vendor and thus also may or may not supported by SAP.
    In worst case you will need to reinstall the application on a non-virtualized environment and reproduce a problem there before SAP support will accept the problem.

  • Microsoft Virtual Machine Converter VMware To Hyper-V Cluster

    I'm not sure if this should technically be in the clustering section but I have just moved from SCVMM 2012 SP1 to 2012 R2 and I kinda miss the built-in converter tool. What I used to do when converting VMware to Hyper-V was uninstall VMware Tools and then
    I would do a physical to virtual conversion on the VMware virtual machine and SCVMM would handle copying the virtual machine while it was online and register it in our Hyper-V cluster. Now, the only thing I could come up with is the Microsoft Virtual Machine
    Converter but it seems rather limited and doesn't seem to have an option to import to a cluster. So is the only option to convert it over to Hyper-V as if it were a local machine and then run another export/import process to get it in the cluster? I tried
    to point it to a CSV and while it copied the disk over, it registered the virtual machine in ProgramData (the default location). This obviously causes issues when trying to make the VM highly available. Any one have a suggested process of the best way to go
    about this? Thank you in advance for your time!

    So no matter what option I choose, V2V always shuts down the source VM during the conversion process. On the other hand, if I use the old method of uninstalling VMware tools manually and then doing a P2V instead, the source VM has to stay online for
    that type of process. Then I just have to migrate it to become highly available and that seems to accomplish what I want. The only annoying part is that I couldn't run it on my Win 8.1 Pro workstation as it requires the BITS feature to be installed
    and that only appears to be available on server editions (correct me if there is a way to get it on 8.1). I guess the documentation (I think) says that it should run on server editions only but V2V runs fine from 8.1 since it doesn't need BITS since it's
    an offline process.
