When I log onto my Virtual XP screen (I use Win7 Pro x64) I can see antivirus programs I've installed, but when trying to load a XP program from a CD I go to Add/Delete and click to load a CD/DVD.

The CD runs and asks where to install the program and defaults to C:xxx

Is 'THAT' C: the C drive of virtual XP or is it the Win7 C: drive? I'm guessing that C: is for the virtual XP OS and I should therefore go ahead and select the default C: folder specified by the SETUP program on the CD.

Thanks
Robert

I believe you are correct. May want to wait for a 3rd opinion though.:)

Yep - went ahead and tried it - the C: that is shown during the install is indeed the XP C: drive.
