Weelll, the site states that it works for 64bit clients and hosts and 
the install did not balk when I lit it up the XP64 machine so I assume I 
am ok. If I do not get problems with the VM on the direct connect IDE.  
I may take the time to build a SCSI based VM planted on the IDE drive 
and see if that invokes the problem.  Ever see a compiler go crazy on 
the old HP mini's running HPDOS?  You know, the OS that had the 
compilers own a raw piece of disk for the object code, so they did 
physical IO to the platter for compiles? That must have been about a 
ga-zillion years ago :)
