Shut-Up and Smile

Get it here.

See my earlier post for what's new for Virtual PC 2007 in general.

Ben Armstrong has a list of what's new for this release. A key item is a fix for users running laptops that have a key repeat problem.

Make sure you read the updated Release Notes (a separate download). One issue I that was having with an earlier build was drag & drop from a guest to a Vista host would fail.

From the Release Notes:

Drag and drop after upgrading Virtual Machine Additions on a Windows Vista guest

On a Windows Vista guest, when you upgrade from any of the earlier versions (including 13.709 and 13.715) of Virtual Machine Additions to the current version of Virtual Machine Additions, drag and drop between the host and guest does not work. To resolve this issue, uninstall any earlier version of Virtual Machine Additions installed. Then install the version of Virtual Machine Additions provided with this release.

I've not had a chance to test it out, but I'll follow up once I've given it a go. For now, I'm running the x64 edition of Virtual PC 2007 on my Vista Ultimate box only and keeping VPC 2004 SP1 on my main boxes. After all, it is still a beta.

The version number of this release is 6.0.142 and the additions is 13.802 (13.724 being the Beta additions).

End of line.
