OS in VPC reboots everytime

Hello,

For a long time now, i've installed Win2000 as the OS in VirtualPC (2007,
SP1 now), never had problems using it until this morning.

When I start the VirtualPC with that .vhd file, a reset is done every time
while starting up (in my opinion just before the login screen would appear).

The vhd contains VB6 projects I need. Is there another tool besides Virtual
PC itself to get access to the file system on that vhd file ?

Or, how can I resolve the endless loop ?

Kind regards
Yves

Thank you Mark, the WinImage tool is superb. I now have a backup of my vb6
files that is up-to-date instead of a few weeks old.

No, VM did not acquire another boot medium (as far as i can see). Is it
possible that re-mapping shared folders from source system (vista) is causing
the restart (due to policy config, i had to renew my password on my Vista,
the mapped drives in VPC (shared folders to my Vista environment) may have
been cached with my former password ?) VPC does not allow me to disconnect
before system is entirely running ?

kind regards
Yves

Has the VM accidentally acquired a physical or virtual boot floppy or CD...?

I doubt it - try turning hardware virtualisation off (if it's turned on) and
also try booting the VM into safe mode...

Have you made any other system modifiations recently, e.g. installed another
software virtualisation tool...?
