Hello,
I installed Virtual PC 2007 for a while on my pc (vista) to run a XP. But since few days I have blue screens with vista. I can not figure out where this may come as this is not regular (blue screen after 15min of use, 45min if any). Please help me, thank you
What text is displayed on the blue screen? Try to switch to VMWare.
Are there any logged reports in the Problem Reports and Solutions that might help give a hint at whats causing the crash? Are you using some share device between the Host and Guest OS?
This page may have the explantion for the problem:

I had the same issue with an HP dv6. Bluescreen after bootup (of main machine, not virt)--but not necessarily when running VPC 2007, but it definitely didn't start bluescreening until after VPC 2007 & additions were installed.
This was with vista 64, it got so bad I loaded Windows 7 rc, all was fine, until I installed vpc 2k7. Then the bluescreens started--again, not when vpc was even running, but it is too coincidental that they didn't start until after vpc was installed.
The only purpose I had for vpc was that Cisco outright refuses to create a 64bit vpn client, so my vpc was for an xp virt that runs the cisco vpn. The lengths we go just to connect...
