We have significantly revamped the documentation to only help you better understand this new VPC and to improve your overall demos! IMPORTANT: This new VPC will have two .vhd files. They are: MSFTDynGP10SP3.vhd and MSFTDynGP10SP3 Pagefile.vhd. The pagefile .vhd is used for additional performance improvements. You MUST also utilize the MSFTDynGP10SP3.vmc (Virtual machine console file) file (Please review page #3 of the “How To Setup” document on the download page to properly use this VPC image.) All of the demo scripts that are posted on this download page (from the link above) have been tested against the new VPC. We have not tested any of the older demonstration scripts. However, the older scripts may still work with the new VPC. In FY10, look for a new IT demonstration script. We are also considering the creation of new Demo2Win! Field Service, Project Accounting and Manufacturing demonstration scripts as well. This new VPC has been uploaded to VM Express as well.
