My apologies to all! The Windows 7 computer is/was not made a member of the domain! Time to suspend my computer drivers license! :think: Todd

I have a Linux Centos server with Samba configured. On the other workstations (XP and Windows 7), the server is shown under Network (centos5); not with my Windows 8 workstations. If I map the network drive (e.g. \\centos5\www\), I have full access. What might I be missing? Todd

I am logged onto a Domain according to this screen: So I appear to be missing some other setting. Todd

I am on a Domain and I see the Windows 8 computer listed (Speedy). With the Remote Desktop I can connect, but I cannot connect via the Domain. From Speedy, I can access the Windows 7 folders. So I am missing something in my setup on the Windows 8 desktop (Speedy). Suggestions...? With...

Thank you! Todd

When I go the other user (actually for me), this is what I see: I do not see where/how to change the password. Todd

Coming from XP, I am trying to get oriented to Win8. What has me confused is how to control the passwords of Users. I am the Administrator and some time ago I created a User without Admin privileges. Unfortunately I did not write down the PW, however, as Admin, I do not see a way to change...

Jim - Thank you for your suggestions, however I do have a couple questions. First, I am not sure how to do this: Next is the challenge of getting the 65 GB image into the virtual XP. I have it on an external USB drive. I just picked 300 GB as a starting size just to be safe...yes...over...

This is my objective: Move a copy of a XP Acronis image onto the virtual XP I now have running. Then use a CD to "restore the image to the virtual XP". I went into the V-disk manager and set the virtual HD max size to 300 GB. Next I mount the virtual and try to copy the image into a pre-made...

How do I connect the Hosts HD to my Virtual Machine? Use the Remote access? Or is there a better way? Todd

Thanks to the generous help of members of this forum, I now have XP SP3 running under Hyper-V with an Internet connection and access to USB on the Windows 8.1 host (using remote access). Now the BIG question/goal: I want to clone my XP development system that resides on a different computer and...

Yes, all of the help that was generously shared with me about setting up remote access WORKS! Many thanks to all! And remember, if you visit Bend, OR, I would enjoy introducing you to Bend's 15 breweries. Now I have another question that I will post on a new thread: cloning a XP system via...

In doing some research, it appears that using Remote Access is the answer. I'll check that out when I have some time...thought I'd save all of you some time so you will not not just duplicate that. And again, thank you... Todd

When I plug in a USB, it is recognized by the Windows 8, but not by Hyper-V and the XP machine [I hope I am using the correct terminology since virtual machines is new]. Todd

Thanks to some great help on this forum, I now have an Internet connection with my XP. The last challenge is USB. Not sure if I am missing something, but I do not see it in the Setup. Any help is appreciated... Todd P.S. I started this new thread though I did mention USB in my last.

My next challenge may be the USB, but I am re-installing XP on a new Hyper-V machine. Turns out the VHD I downloaded from MS is only a 30 day evaluation...darn. Fortunately, I have a XP disk and Product Key. Thanks again.... Todd

Yes, entering the Legacy Network was the answer! Thank you so much...hard to know how one could have figured out all of those steps!!! With appreciation to Kari.... Todd

Before going any further and miss using your time, I poked around in the network connections of my Windows 8.1 computer and I believe I may have found the root cause of my problems...but not sure. To keep in mind, I have been using Win XP since it was introduced and since the software my client...

@Harrylowt has been of great help for me to get a XP vhd up and running *except* I do not have Network or USB capabilities. Apparently I am suppose to get an option to install the drivers from the host computer (Windows 8.1); I do not see/get that option. My sequence is shown here. Am I...

Sorry for the delay...have a big project. I followed your sequence exactly: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2ice56e6vohu1kc/nx3RlxBOSx When I click on Connect, the XP machine starts and I am asked to log in to XP. Todd
