Permanent Fix The answer comes late (3 years). But I just digged up this game out of my archive and confronted the same problem: CTD in crows nest view. You dont need a virtual machine for this to work. The problem is most probably cause because you have a multi core CPU and XP loves to switch the CPU assignment of an application while its running, efficiently messing up many old games like Deus Ex (ironically another EIDOS product) and Cutthroats. The solution is to permanently set the CPU affinity of an application. For this you will need a small application like "IMGCFG" (google it), that will allow you to assign a CPU to the application. Everything is documented in the readme file, but I'll give you an example of the command line you will need to type in a DOSbox or RUN: imagecfg -a 0x2 "c:\games\cutthroats\cutthroats.exe" |

Steps to share a folder between host-guest in VPC: (short version, read the manual for more) Safety first: create a folder to share(mine is 'VPC_Shared) and allow sharing, don't share a whole drive. -> Run your guest OS in VPC -> VPC menu (above) 'ACTION' -> install or update additions -> Will mount an ISO (if Win guest), if doesn't start in autorun run it manually -> *( for dosguest: will mount a floppy image, Dos Virtual Machine Additions.vfd, run dosadd.bat from A:\ )* -> Will need a VPC reboot (W98) -> VPC menu -> EDIT -> settings -> shared folders -> share folder -> point to 'VPC_Shared' -> eventually check box 'share everytime' -> apply DONE. From now on you can share all the folders/files in VPC_Shared between host-guest. |

IIRC, you could also set up a network between the real and virtual system... but don't ask me how it's supposed to be done. |

I got virtual pc working, now how do i transfer data from the host os to the virtual pc os without writing it on a cd ? |

| Mighty Midget | For the virtual PCs, you will need a copy of the OS you want on VPC. Mount the CD crive in VPC and install the OS the way you usually do. | ||||
