here ya go... PCLinuxOS 2007 emmulated on Vista with Microsoft Virtual PC...

I used the Default Vista setting to make the VM, then ran the disk wizard to make the virtual hard drive(i made it set to about 8GB), Then i ran G-parted from a disk and formatted it ... plopped in the live cd... and it works... I'm having a hell of time getting the sound to work though... its SB16 emmulation and i can;t get it to work in Win Server either... I found a website that looked promising and helpful but still not dice... kinda weird... **scratches head...*** oh well...

Here it is

no need to run g-parted first... ALL you need to do is used the VESA driver... for linux live CD's... thats what i have found... ;)

The PCLOS utility worked fine for formatting the the VM(Hard Drive) **keeping my fingers crossed its still installing... it's hauling ar*e i have it running straight from an ISO! LOL forget running it from a CD... LOL
