Maybe you can help being an expert on the subject. XP32 VM new installed with Win7 host and works perfectly, even networking. Fractint is on a bootstick which is accessable for file management. How can I start Fractint, apparently it is unable to use network addresses ? Tried several sstools settings but no luck. For XP I use 1280/1024 reso with software speed up, so it should be available as vesa mode ? Thanks for any help. Albrecht
