Haje,
I installed the Windows XP Mode virtual machine under the Windows 7
operating system, but i get the error message:
"IDL Validation Error
Unable to obtain a license to run as a windows terminal server client"
which almost defeates the object of having a virtual machine.
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Neil
