From: JackSpratt on 4 Apr 2010 05:43 Running VPC2007 on my laptop. Windows 7 host and Win 2.8k 32 bit virtual. I can't type @ On my laptop keyboard the ampersand is shift + 2 but when I type this I get a different char. I've tried many times to test my sanity. I have to go to the host OS and type it into notepad then return to the VPC and paste it in. Any ideas?
