    yes to both it says bridged network, but it also says limited or no connection, and yes both are xp

    does the fact that i did NTFS (not the quick 1) make a difference?

    No that shouldn't affect your network at all. What's your network speed? Since it says Limited/No connection I'm thinking you're on a slow connection...

    billben what's the blue screen say?

    dan: Yeah it's pretty much the same...I'm guessing your computer just isn't fast enough if it won't go past the Welcome screen. What're your specs? You delete VMs by going into My Docs > My Virtual Machines, then right click it and delete.

    The problem is your RAM. XP Takes 128MB, so you only have 256MB left. Now add a VM which takes even more memory...that's why it won't go past the Welcome screen. You should upgrade to at least 512. RAM is really cheap nowadays

    I am using Windows XP Home as host and Windows XP Home as VM. I have wireless PCI network adapter, and can get the VM to connect to the internet using NAT (which I believe means that both have the same IP address)

    if you do not have a router then you must use nat, idk why. i know this because i used a bridged network until my router broke and then only nat worked.

    i've tried the vmware thing, i used tinyxp rev 06 and for some reason runescape lags. its a weird lag though, like when it lags on my main comp, it freezes for a sec then comes back. On the tinyxp install (on tinyxp and the VM) it is almost unresponsive, its as if i was emulating a processor and its not running up to speed. its smooth, but its like 75% as speed and responsive as my main OS install.

    The way i set it up was i put a fresh install of tinyxp on a new partition, then i installed vmware and tinyxp on it, the whole thing with VM running used less than 400mb, i have 512.

    I may try another stripped version of xp tho and report back.

    I get that sometimes. The only way to fix it is to put more RAM in the VM. Try adding another 512MB stick to your computer
