Windows Virtual PC is the newest Microsoft system for computer users who need a virtual version of the Windows operating system and any accompanying hardware. The latest version of Windows Virtual PC was released the same time as Windows 7 and completely replaces Virtual PC 2007. While most users are very happy with the new virtualization program, it is important to note that the software is not without its critics. Here is all of the basic information that users need to consider before upgrading to Windows Virtual PC.
Virtual PC Features
One of the most popular new features for Windows Virtual PC is support and redirection for nearly all USB devices, such as digital cameras, smart phones and flash drives. Similarly, this version of Windows Virtual PC offers full support of flash cards, including seamless redirection of data to a host computer. If you are operating multiple virtual machines at one time, the latest Windows Virtual PC allows you to manage every single virtual machine from just one internet Explorer folder.
Virtual PC System Requirements
Windows Virtual PC is not designed to work on most computers that were made more than five years ago. This is because Windows Virtual PC requires a processor that is runs at least 1 GHZ, as well as 2 GB of memory or more. It is also recommended that a user has at least 2 GB of hard disk space in order to run optimally. There are also specific processors available that Microsoft recommends that have Hardware Assisted Virtualization Technology like Intel-VT that can be helpful when running Windows Virtual PC, but most users report that this really is not necessary for common applications.
Missing Features of Virtual PC
There are definitely a few features that some users of Windows Virtual PC will miss. For example, Virtual PC no longer supports anachronistic inputs like floppy disks or parallel ports. This may not affect users who are using Virtual PC for modern business applications, but there are still many home hobbyists that definitely miss these features. Windows Virtual PC also does not allow users to access any shared folders on different virtual machines on DOS, which some users have found fairly frustrating.
