Windows XP mode/ Windows virtual PC

I have to support some LV7.1 programs (along with newer versions). I just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 Home 64-bit. LV7.1 loads and runs, but the drivers disk pukes on the 64-bit OS. (This was not unexpected...)
The new PC does have an Intel processor that will support Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode.
I will need to upgrade to W7 Pro, but before I do, I'd like to get some feeling that it will all work. Should older NIDaq, MAX, etc. install OK in XP mode? Has anybody done this? Is there another solution that is better?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Seth,
Thanks for the speedy reply.
I try to use NI-DAQmx, but I won't swear that I don't have traditional DAQ routines out there. I would like to run real hardware (USB DAQ) on my new laptop, de-bug and burn executables.
What are my options? I could keep LV7.1 on my old desktop, newer versions on my new laptop. Would I be running afowl of LV's EULA? Does NI care about antique versions of LV?
I see that NI-DAQmx 9.0 supports versions LV8.2.1, 8.5.1 and 8.6.1. If I put these on my 64-bit, will executables I make run on 32-bit target systems?
I don't want to flush Windows 7 64-bit to install the 32-bit. I want it all!
My company has let my subscription lapse. I don't have LV 2009. Not much chance of an upgrade this year...
Regards,
John Spencer

Windows Virtual PC and XP Mode refuses to start after update 25 February 2014

I have been using Virtual PC and XP Mode now successfully for more than 1 year. I am running Windows 7 Profession on a i7-2600 with 8 GB
But after the update on 25 February 2014 to both the XP Mode and Windows 7, my Virtual PC no longer works. It loops continuously and never starts.
Is anyone else having this problem? Are there any hot fixes? We have our accounting and address management system running in XP mode, so this is quite important to find a fast solution.
Thanks very much
David

Hi,
Rename the .vsv (virtual machine saved states) file in "C:\Users\[user id]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows
Virtual PC\Virtual Machines",then start the VM again.
As a test, you can also uninstall the newly installed updates, check whether this issue is related with the updates. Generally, Windows Updates will not cause any issues, but if some software installed in your system conflicts with it or the updates
not installed correctly, it will cause some unexpected issues.

Windows XP mode with Virtual PC will not install / two problems

Hello! I posted this on the Microsoft Windows Answers forums and a moderator there suggested I post it here instead. I also searched here for similiar problems but did not find anyone having the exact same problem as I am having. Also for
some reason it won't let me post links, so I had to remove them.
I have Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) and I want to follow the instructions here:
LINK REMOVED
to install and run Virtual PC so I can see if some legacy XP software I have will work.
I am using a Lenovo W520 laptop with an i7 at 2.4ghz with 8GB of RAM.
I followed step 1/step 2 and downloaded the 500MB file for Windows XP Mode. I installed it.
Problem #1: There's a note at the bottom of the page which says "Once you have installed Windows XP Mode, click the Windows 7 Start button then select All Programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin setup. For information on how
to set up Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode, check out "Running Windows XP Mode with Windows Virtual PC" on the Support and Videos page. "
I am looking at the All Programs view and there's absolutely nothing which says "Windows Virtual PC" or "Windows XP Mode". I go look at Programs and Features in the control panel and indeed, Windows XP mode is installed (and taking up 1.13GB).
I uninstall it and re-download the 500mb file and re-install it. It still doesn't show up in the All Programs view, doesn't add an icon to my desktop or quick launch bar, or do anything which suggests a way to start it. It resides in C:\Program
Files\Windows XP Mode, but there are no executeable files there.
Problem #2: Step 3 says "Download Windows Virtual PC". When I click on that button, the download starts, but never works (I tried multiple times, including after a clean reboot, with nothing except Internet Explorer running) ; I get an error
window which says:
"Windows Update Standalone Installer
Installer encountered an error: 0x80070422
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it."
What is going wrong?
Thanks.
Note; After posting this questio on Windows Answers, some related questions popped up and I read through them. One post points to a posting on the Sevenforums ->LINK REMOVED which suggests that Problem #2 is my real problem because I follow
along perfectly until step #5-E and then I get the 0x80070422 error message.

Problem 2 is the issue, without installing a virtualization program like WVPC, XP Mode can't be used.
Try this:
Method 1:
I would suggest you to follow the steps and check.
To start the Windows Installer service in Windows 7 checks the steps below.
a) Click on start.
b) Type Services.msc in the start search bar and press enter.
c) Scroll down and Double-click on the service named "Windows Installer".
d) Check the value in the 'Startup type:' field.
e) If it's currently set to "Disabled", then this could cause the issue.
f) Change it by selecting "Manual" from the drop-down box.
Method 2:
Step 1: Make sure Volume Shadow Copy Service is set to automatic and started. To do this, follow these steps:
a) Click on Start-Run, type services.msc, the click on OK.
b) When the Services window loads, navigate to the “Volume Shadow Copy Service ", the double click on it to open it,
c) Make sure the "Startup Type" says "Automatic" and
started. If it doesn't, use the drop down menu to change it.
d) If it already says: "Automatic", then click on the "Recovery" tab at the top, and change the "First Failure" line to "Restart the Service", then click on "apply", then OK.
Step 2: Run Check disk to fix any bad sectors on the hard drive.
a. Click on start and in the start search bar type CMD, right click on the command prompt icon in the programs area and then click on run as administrator.
b. At the command prompt type chkdsk /f and then press enter.
Now, type in chkdsk /r
Note: CHKDSK would try to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, during this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular sector.
Step 3: Disable the security software and then start the backup; follow the steps mentioned in the link below
Disable-antivirus-software
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Disable-antivirus-software
Important: Enable the security software back once everything is done.
Method 3;

Windows Update Stalls When Running in Windows 7/Windows Virtual PC/Win XP_ Mode

Hi
This is Bob in Tallahassee. Can anyone please help. I installed Win7 Pro on a newly built PC and then Windows Virtual PC/Win XP Mode. When I try running Windows Update in the XP mode window, it keeps cycling "searching for updates"
and never reaches the next step, never stops cycling. I checked msconfig and there is a process "svchost.exe" eating 99% of resources. It is likely related to windows update. When I shut it down, my internet connection is cut
off, but the Windows Update still keeps cycling. I have tried all I know, including optimizing bios for virtualization. Is there another setting that I'm missing? Thanks. Bob

Running windows virtual. Will thunderbolt ethernet adapter work?

Hi
I need to program SIEMENS PLC. I want to buy a mba but this program (step 7 tia portal) only runs on windows. so I want to run it in virtual mode (parallel or virtualbox vw ware fusion.. w/e). The older plc's can be programmed with a usb connection but this connection (usb) will work in windows virtual mode right?
but here's the deal, the newer plc's can ONLY be programmed with a internet connection. so I need to give my virtual windows 7 a static ip address before I can connect with my plc.
will these both connections work? I need to know before I buy one.. and everyone gives me different answers..
thnx alot.
ps: sorry for bad english

Here is a screen shot from VMware. This is accessible from the Settings -> Network Adapter -> Network Adapter Settings...
If you click on the TB Ethernet, radio button (as highlighted by the box), it will prompt you for the Administrative password and then create a virtual bridge interface using this physical connection.

Windows Virtual Machine Doesn't Start

I recently installed a clean install of windows 7 pro 64-bit. I installed windows XP mode as described on the microsoft website followed by the update provided but when I try to open windows virtual PC nothing happens. I click on the program icon and nothing happens. When I try to open windows XP mode I get the error message "Cannot start Windows Virtual PC Host Process. Check the System event log for more detials. Server execution failed" Once I check the event log there is nothing there. The PC I am running on supports hardware virtualization and it is enabled in the bios. My coworker just installed windows XP mode on the machine right next to mine and it works fine. Can someone please tell me how to get this thing to work. Running virtual 2007 is not an option.

Same problem.
In past i've used successful windows virtual pc, but now it won't work.
I tryed uninstallind the Windows6.1-KB958559-x64.msu update and the windows xp mode and deleting the old virtual machines.
After reinstall the Windows6.1-KB958559-x64.msu update the problem returns as before.
I get this error: "Cannot start Windows Virtual PC Host Process. Check the System event log for more detials. Server execution failed"
Looking at the event viewer into "Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/Virtual PC/Admin" i find "Virtual machine ''. Error - Server execution failed"
(0x80080005)" and just before this message i get "One or more files from the Virtual PC installation are missing. Please reinstall Virtual PC and try again."
So i tryed a lot of times uninstalling and reinstalling, unsucessfully. What i can do?

Windows Virtual PC (VMWindow.exe) does nothing but open a dialog box labeled user "Virtual Machines"

Windows Virtual PC (VMWindow.exe) does nothing but open a dialog box labeled <user> "Virtual Machines"
Running Win 7 Pro 64 bit SP1 on an Asus Z97 Pro socket 1150 mobo, with Intel VT-d both Supported and Enabled in the BIOS.

I am attempting to use Win Virtual PC as one would use VirtualBox or VMware Player.
I thought I stated my case clearly.
Are you proposing that Win Virtual PC functions ONLY to run Win XP in a virtual machine environment?
Bill
No, I just suspect you would like to install XP mode on virtual machine.
Supported guest operating systems in Virtual PC:
•Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) Professional
•Windows Vista Enterprise Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions
•Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions
•Windows Vista Business Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions *
• Windows 7 Professional *
•Windows 7 Enterprise.
•Windows 7 Ultimate
• Windows 7 Professional (SP1)*
•Windows 7 Enterprise (SP1)
•Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1)
*Note Virtual applications are not supported on Windows Vista Business or on Windows 7 Professional or on Windows 7 Professional(SP1). All other features of Windows Virtual PC are supported on these two guest systems.

Windows Virtual PC running Windows 7 Pro on Windows 7 Pro with Network Sharing (NAT)

I have been trying to get a new install of Windows 7 in Windows Virtual PC 6.1 to use the Shared Networking with the Windows 7 host.
It works with Windows XP as the guest. I tried changing the DNS to 192.168.131.254 and 252. It works through a dedicated NIC but I need NAT because I have to use the IP of the host (this is in a computer lab where students play with their own Windows 7 vhd).
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I would like to suggest you perform the following steps to troubleshoot this issue:
1.
Disable antivirus program and try to install Windows Virtual PC again in
Clean Boot.
2.
Try to reset Windows Update components and install
System Update Readiness Tool to test the issue.
3.
Update the
Windows Update Agent for Windows 7 x64 to check the result.
Does it work?

Windows Virtual PC (KB958559) will not install, "This update is not applicable to your computer."

Windows Virtual PC KB958559 never installs. It says "This update is not applicable to your computer." Here are my details...
Dell Inspiron M6400, Intel Core2 Duo T9550, Hardware Virtualization is present and has been enabled in bios which was updated recently
Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit, build 7600.16539.x86fre.win7_gdr.100226-1909
Any ideas? I have seen the other posts but nothing seemed to be a solution. Another strange behavior that may (or may not) be related is that when I try to load the "Turn Windows features on or off" the box loads blank.

Firstly, please read the following article on how to resolve the blank dialog box of “Windows Features”:
The "Windows Features" dialog box is empty in Windows 7 or Windows Vista, or you receive an error message that includes
the following code when you try to use Windows Update: "0x80073712"
Then,
empty the Temporary Internet files and %Temp% folder.
At last, download
Windows Virtual PC again and install it.

Got an error when install oracle 9i in linux 9 in windows virtual server

Hi Guys,
I am installing an oracle 9i in my laptop that is linux 9 server which is hosted in windows virtual server. when I ran runInstaller, I got an eror that is can't connect x11 windows server using........ When I ran xterm, I got can't open dispaly. xhost + also dosn't work. Is that ok that I can install oracle in a linux that is installed in windows virtual server? What value can I set to DISPLAY value?
Thank in advance.

Linux 9? You mean the one that was end-of-lifed in 2004? (Just checking ...)
If yes, you gotta decide whether it's the 'Linux 9 Boxed Version' or the 'Linux 9 Download Version'. The two have completely different compiler and glibc packages that are incompatible. Fix that incompatibility - relative to Oracle's needs - and you will be able to make Oracle9i limp along.

SWTBot tests inconsistent for Kepler in Windows Virtualized Environment

Hallo,
I am using SWTBot to test an Eclipse E4 RCP Application based on Eclipse 4.3 (Kepler).
My SWTBot tests are run as part of a Maven / Tycho Build.
When I launch the maven build on my development workstation the tests are working.
On the build server the maven build is trigged by TFS / MSBuild
Before the 6th of June, 2015 , the tests used to run both in my development environment and in the build environment.
Now, after 6th of June, the tests are not working anymore on the Build server (Vindows Virtualized Environment). There was no code change in the period, but now the tests are failing.
Currently the tests executed on the build server are always returning an error similar to this: "Could not find widget : .. "
As described above, the same tests are working on my local development environment; and the same tests used to work on the build server in previous months.
So,
(1) I am wondering if there was any change in the SWTBot code, that resulted in an incompatibility with Windows Virtual Environment.
(2) Is it possible to get the state of the update site before June 2015 ?
- If so please, tell me how
Thank you in advance for spending your time on this

I love Windows on my MacBook, but I'm not a gamer (at all) and I know gaming is the ultimate road-test. Your post indicates you are likely competent enough to draw a thorough conclusion on your own, but I notice you have not considered malware, spyware, virus & anti-virus interference. I suppose this was likely taken care of by a fresh install, but maybe reinfection happened just as fast. One thing I have done is to open Device Manager and identify + update all possible stale drivers. Apple is not that aggressive at providing new ones.
Must be vexing to have this happen, but it is an interesting post, since people everywhere are wondering if Apple hardware really IS as good as PC....
I invite gamers everywhere to add to this..... Cheers

Can I install Windows Virtual PC in Technical Preview?
I keep getting an error message Ox80096002 The certificate for the signer of the message is invalid or not found.
Should I carry on trying, or can't it be done?

Hi Salvador Freemanson,
Windows Virtual PC is not available in Windows 8 or later, for virtualization technology, it is replaced by Client Hyper-v.
