I also have XP SP2 installed and th enetwork access is extremly slow after
installing VPC SP1. It seems to be when the Windows 2003 server should access
the networkcard. When I do a ping I have normal response time but there is a
delay between the pings that takes about 2 seconds!!

Hi,

I installed Virtual server and had simular problems. I found some stuff
regarding disabling QuickStep feature in BIOS. I disabled this and my Virtual
server did run without any problems. I hav thow not tested this on Virtual PC
but it might bee a good idea to test it.

Best regards

Ralf,

Thanks I'll give it a try. However, I won't be satisfied if this is the fix.
I need to keep my notebook in SpeedStep mode. Battery life is important.
