I've been running Virtual PC on Windows 7 with XP Mode, and have installed
other VHDs in it, but I do not believe it will handle 64 bit guests and
would still need Hyper-V.

Phil, btw - OT - how did you make out with those GPOs?

He got side tracked by a different DR situation at another client,...never
got back to it at all yet. I just do whatever he askes me to do,..so if he
wants me to drop something and work on something else, that's what I do :-)

The system is runnig "ok" at the moment. I did, prior to that, get rid of
all the excess policy settings and the logins are quick like they should be
and the whole thing seems to be running very smooth in-spite of itself.
Last I heard the plan was to create a new AD Domain and migrate over and
dump the old domain,..so it might never get actually fixed. Personally, I
do believe the premissions thing that you decribed is the root of the
problem,..but I don't know if we will ever get to find out for sure.

Well, at least you got it going for now. I think a migration is the better
bet. :-) Let me know if I can help you moving forward with this whichever
way he wants to take this.

Cheers!
