Virtual PC 2007 time synchronization problem

[sorbit4]

I installed VPC 2007 (SP1) on an XP Prof. (SP3) host. Than I installed a Win98SE as a guest and then intalled the Virtual Machine Additions. I am satisfied with it but it is quite annoying that the

clock on the VM be losing. What can be the problem?

...the clock on the VM be losing...

I don't understand that statement. However, VPC, by design, will always use the Host Clock. It occasionally checks (and updates) to keep people from "setting the clock back" for Trial Software.

I also tought that the guest should timely synchronized to the host clock, but not. It is slowly late. After (starting the guest) , about 15 sec. late in 2 hours in the guest. I do not know the reason.

Microsoft notices the advatage (among others) of the Virtual Machine Additions installation:

- time synchronization between the VM and the host.
