I have a Gateway Machine that has Microsoft Virtula PC 2007 on it and I recently obtained an evaluation version of Windows Server 2003 and decided to install on on my Virtual Hard Drive to play around with (Since I believe knowing how to manage and maitain a Server machine in a network environment is vital to a successful IT Director).

I had no problems installing and setting it up! But...


Here is the problem...

To login into Windows Server 2003 you need to push control+alt+delete but when you're inside of Virtual PC when I hit control+alt+delete it pauses Virtual PC and brings to Task Manager in Windows Vista. I cannot get around this, I am unable to login into my Virtual Windows Server 2003 machine. Is there a shortcut key I could use to login instead? Or does anyone have any ideas?'


Thanks in advance.




Ps. The reason I am playing around with this is that I plan on configuring this Virtual Server to a domain controller on a made up network to get some Active Directory experiece.

I don't have a VPC window handy to confirm, but see if there is a CTRL-ALT-DEL choice on the Action menu. RIGHT-ALT-DEL or CTRL-ALT-END may be other possibilities, though I may be confusing the latter with Remote Desktop.
