    This is known issue of the Microsoft Virtual PC which can be solved by the keyboard. It wont come out of the full screen mode with the mouse for that you have to use the keyboard only other wise it wont come to normal screen. To back it to the normal mode you have to press home key and then enter. This is because by default Virtual PC do set it. Hope that will solve your problem. Thanks

    If you are using the Windows 7 as your operating system then i will suggest you to use the Windows XP mode which made by the Microsoft corporation to work with compatibility issue of the application. This runs the Windows XP application on the Windows 7 without any problem. I will advise it to use it once and then see the working of the same.
