Sorry Safesurf, have been away for the weekend for a break from this ‘flippin’ machine. My original “DAMN DAMN” message I think has been misunderstood. Within the XPMode Virtual Machine in my Win7 Pro laptop I had no problem connecting to the internet. Downloaded new version of Avast! then tried to download OA as an extra firewall. My server would not let me download OA until I upgraded to IE 8 then it downloaded fine. I added Avast! to the 'exceptions’of OA (sorry in my last msg I incorrectly typed ‘exclusions’, no problem was apparent but it asked me to restart my computer which I did thinking I could add OA to Avast!'s exceptions once back in.
The problem is not connecting back to the internet - I CANNOT ACCESS THE VIRTUAL MACHINE. I have never needed a password before so when prompted I tried the only password I knew which was the one I gave the tech.(main wIN 7 password) who set up the laptop me. I am told to enable intergration features in the tools menu by pressing continue but the option is greyed out. The ‘Help’ Option does not help me. The intergration options in the main computer show it is ‘not available’ but no option to enable, anything I click does not respond. I am the Owner/Administrator/User (everything), Not shared with anyone or anything. Thanks
