Install problems installing virtual PC7

[Takson]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to install virtual PC 7 on my iMac. The initial part of the install runs ok, but once I click on complete, I get an application quit unexpectedly message.

If I reboot the mac, and try and manually run the VPC7 app to complete the install I just keep getting the message.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I don't really want to install it but have just bought some remap software for my car and it needs to run on a PC.

Is it a PowerPC Mac or a newer Intel Mac?

Them I'm 99% sure you can't install Virtual PC: it's for PowerPC Macs. Use Bootcamp, Parallels, VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox to install the copy of Windows you were going to use with Virtual PC.

Now that I think about it it came with office for mac rather than the machine.
