Or you can install a backup software like Acronis, backup the VM to an image, go to the next window 7 computer with Professonial, Enterprise, or Ultimate installed, then install only the Windows Virtual PC update and second update if your hardware is not virtual , make a new expanding dynamic hard drive under vm settings , restore the image, then start the VM PS Remember your user name and password once it's started select tools, turn on intergration. Then the vm will be intergrated with the new computer.
If you try to do this with Virtual PC on another operating system. You will need a new key. Are you talking about Windows XP Mode for Windows 7 or are you talking generically about moving a virtual macine image from one computer to another? So, copying or moving that to another computer is probably more work that just running the executable to put it in the right place as well as any regitry settings that would be associated with it.
Figured it out with the help of this post. Once installed, I deleted the xp mode files from that directory and copied in my existing xp mode files. I had the original vm shutdown so the transfer went ok. Worked like a charm. Xp mode uses differencing drives but the location of the xp mode original in program files was exactly the same on both computers and I didn't copy that.
I'm sure you could do this without using the same setup options in xp mode. Also, the stored credentials are important. Delete and recreate them if needed. With DavidB2's method you need to be careful. If the XP Mode base image you install is different from the XP Mode base image on the original computer, you could run into serious problems with the differencing disc including complete data loss.
I am loading up 4 new PC. Besides using Acronis to dupe the entire drive, I'd like to know how to move a virtual pc image from one to another. I have also setup all the printers and other things that I need within the XP Mode. Besides redoing all that work on each computer I would like to copy the virtual machine xp mode and put a copy on each of the other computers.
