Problem with Mouse after importing the VHD

Hello,

I am testing the new MS W2K3 R2 EE VHD. I can't seems to get the mouse to
work right under either Virtual Server or VMWARE. I reinstalled and same
problem. I am sure we are not the only one with this problem. Any
suggestions?

Also, can I convert the W2K3 on the VHD into a full version or is it for
eval only?

Andy

What version of Virtual Server are you using? What is the exact
problem? Are you accessing the VM console directly on the host or via
any remote access like RDP? If you are doing this remotely, controlling
a VM's mouse is usually problematic.

As for VMware, I'm fairly certain the license for the eval versions does
NOT allow the VHD to be converted to VMware. If you do that, you will
definitely have keyboard/mouse problems as well as trigger activation
which shortens the evaluation period substantially,e.g. to like 3 days
or less. IMO, it's not worth it. You are better off downloading your
own 180-day eval and installing it freshly.

Sometimes the evaluation version of Windows can be 'upgraded' with the
full version of Windows that you purchased by doing a repair
installation. I don't think that's supported and this may not work if
the machine is operating as a Domain Controller or other functions that
do not lend themselves to repair installations.
