Why cant I trail and drop a file from host to Microsoft Virtual PC?
I run Vista Home Premium on my host machine, and XP on the virtual PC. I extremity to copy files from the host to the virtual PC,but it just doesn't work, neither by drag and throw over or copy and paste. Why is that? Does anyone have any idea what to do??
Thanks Colanth, I discovered I hadn't set it up correctly ... so it was back to the old monochrome board .... :)

Go to XP (the virtual PC) - outstretched My Computer. You should have a shared partition to Vista. Find the file there, copy it and paste it to where you want it in the virtual PC's 'vigour'. (Mine is called Partition_1 on 'C:\', just to give you an idea.)

Self-Service Portals Let Your Users Manage Virtual Machines ...

by Patrick M.

SCVMM 2008 (or “System Center Virtual Auto Administrator”) is Microsoft’s plea to a “unified, multi-vendor conduct result for the virtual datacenter.” SCVMM R2 was released recently, and along with it came the gifts to set up a Self-Servicing Portal. Using a Self-Armed forces Portal, IT professionals can well earmark others to think up, deal with, and state virtual machines through a web-based interface.

Before milieu up the Self-Armed forces Portal, you’ll necessity a fully-configured SCVMM infrastructure. Luckily, that can be done with a cull server or a whole server homestead.

The basic constituents to locale up the Self Worship army Portal are:

Hosts or Emcee Groups are servers that stand up for continuous virtual machines within your infrastructure. Its direct proviso is that Hyper-V must be installed, and Self-Maintenance Portals will constraint Hyper-V R2 installed.

The library servers are servers or case parcel locations that officiate at apply the required pieces for creating and managing virtual machines. Those bits and pieces consist of swearing-in media (such as CD/DVD Images of operating systems), virtual uncompromising drives, or VHDs, and potentially templates.

Templates are generic, off-get hold of virtual machines that you can configure and redeploy as fully running virtual machines. One could have a series of templates residing on the Library servers with a conflicting specialization for each (web server, database, etc.).

Self Mending Users are users who are allowed to log into and use the Self-Amenities Portal. The administrator can mark off tasks users are allowed to accomplish, and can categorize anywhere from absolutely starting or stopping virtual machines to full direction of creating and deleting them.

While there are many steps required steps to configure all that, they aren’t critical to put on. One could go from a lay bare Windows Server 2008 R2 depot to a fully utilitarian Self-Worship army Portal setup in an afternoon.
