Installed VPC 2007 SP1 and everything went fine. Also installed the security
fix and Virtual PC 2007 hotfix package.
Still everything working fine. Then I installed the additions. This messed
up my display. It is running at 640 X 480 4 bit.

Device Manager does not red "X" flag the adapter as having a problem but I
deleted the display adapter (VM Additions S3 Trio32/64) anyway and rebooted.
When the Additions driver reinstalls the display goes back to low res.

If I uninstall the additions the display is OK again.

Forgot to mention that the VirtualPC is XP SP3

what is the monitor set to? I've seen where it gets set to a low-res monitor
instead of a pnp one.
