I have created a Virtual PC machine and it is running fine. When I created the virtual machine I gave it 1GB of RAM. I now want to up that to 2GB but cannot find a way to do this for an existing machine. The RAM settings seem to be read only when I have it loaded up. Is this possible? I would like to avoid creating a new virtual machine and going through the very long install and updating process just to get the memory updated.

You can change it, but your VM has to be shut down at the time.

I tried that but it didnt work. I shutdown the VM and then when to settings for that machine and it would not allow the RAM setting to be updated. – Phil Wright Sep 9 '09 at 2:39
Which version are you running? – emgee Sep 9 '09 at 2:44
I take it back. I was not shutting it down correctly. I have updated the RAM now. – Phil Wright Sep 9 '09 at 2:47
