    Hi,
    Working on osx 10.3.5 and PBG4 1,2Ghz
    Tried several times to install the additions (followed the steps above),
    the only thing which is working is the cursor which I can move between
    the windows screen and the mac desktop
    all other options are greyed out and are not selectable...
    I used several times the uninstall function in xp pro (+ restart and
    reinstall) but so far without any succes
    I'm using a second account (admin privileges), this shouldn't be a
    problem?

    I bought vpc 6.1 because of the functionality of the additions,
    and have seen that other users are having similar problems (user group
    microsoft/vpc)
    any help is welcome

    Marc
