The problem is that the VHD (Virtual Hard Disk) file is either corrupt or
missing.
PRAY that it is missing, and that you can restore it.
Because if it is corrupt, you're pretty much hosed. It's a large binary
file, and if it's bad, it's bad.
There is a way to "Mount" a VHD as a disk drive. Ask them in the VPC group
and they will be able to tell you how to go about it. I think later
versions of Windows will enable you to mount a VHD and get the data back
from it when the contained copy of Windows won't start. But if the reason
the contained copy of Windows won't start is because the VHD is corrupted,
that won't work either...
Cheers
When I try to open my Virtual PC Windows XP on my Powerbook G4 it
comes up with an error that Windows could not open successfully. I try
to open it in safe mode and all of the other options available and it
still comes up that I am unable to open Windows. Any ideas how to fix
this or what the problem is?
