Reply to WindowsBlinds 7 prevents Windows 7 Virtual PC from running in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

I did some more researh on to this problem. If I load a theme that alters the task bar then Virtual PC will not load. If I use a theme like Areo Metal or Clay virtual machine will load. If I load any theme that prevents VM from working I have to change the theme and reboot or task end wbvista.exe before VM will work again. I have tried 6 different themes that alter the task bar including some from stardock and they all have the

I have to kill the wbvista.exe task. It can't be in memory for Virtual PC to work. All of the other executables like VistaSrv.exe and SevenConfig.exe *32 are ok if in memory. Normally I just reboot to re-enable window blinds. This is a fairly fresh install of Windows 7. I'll try and do a dump of open handles that wbvista.exe has and post them.

I was trying to run the Windows 7 Virtual PC, not Virtual PC 2007 SP1. I get an error message: 'VMMachineName' could not be started because there is not enough system resources or memory in your computer. You can shut down other virtual machines or close open applications and try again. Task ending the wbvista.exe allows the virtual pc to work normally but unloading does not. I have tried both WB7.01 and WB7.09c Windows 7 x64 Professional with 5GB of RAM.</

Taskbar location in Windows 7 causes Window Blinds 7.01 to crash in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

I have found that if I move the task bar to the left side of the screen WB 7.01 will cause Explore.exe to crash with most themes. If the taskbar is unlocked it will place the taskbar back at the bottom. Otherwise Explorer.exe will crash a few times and then be ok. This happens with some included themes as well as downloaded ones. There are some other odd crashes with WB but they are harder to duplicate and may just be because of the 64bit OS. A full 64 bi
