I have installed Virtual PC 2007 on two XP machines both having an AMD 939 64 bit CPU's and are running XP Pro 32 bit O/S natively. When I try and load the latest MS test image I can read the pxe boot information and it attempts to load a 64 bit image which fails due to the native 32 bit O/S? Two questions, why is pxe involved if the image is local, and how do I get around this issue. I have developers that need to test IE6 and IE 7 on each workstation. This isn't an issue on boxes running 32 bit CPU's with 32 bit O/S and I don't read any pxe information. Thank you in advance.
 
Issue found and fixed. The IE6 Test Image.exe file did not expand properly and as a result could not boot from the hard drive image, therefore attempted to pxe boot.
