Disabling time synchronization between guest and host in Microsoft Virtual PC

By | 2009-03-25T07:29:02+00:00 March 25th, 2009|How To, Third Party, Uncategorized|5 Comments

I went hunting through the options in the Virtual PC UI but didn't find anything related to disabling this option. A bit of googling later and I've got it disabled by adding a few lines of XML to the .vmc file.
