Install Windows Media Player?
Have you installed the Mac version?
Although the Mac version of Windows Media Player is not as good as PC version, but playing videos under Virtual PC is ... a big headache.

A freshly installed Windows XP - in VirtualPC - on a well used and slightly customised Windows XP . . .

DJGM, can you put the original default Windows XP wallpaper on your Windows XP, so we can make a Windows XP in Windows XP :-)

Here is Windows Messenger 4.0.0155 running on Windows 98 SE. Later Windows Messenger versions required Windows 2000, XP, or Server 2003 to run. What makes this unusual is that I am signed in with this old version. I am running a program called Sfyx, which allows older versions of MSN and Windows Messenger to sign in, without the manditory upgrade to a newer version.

Image

Here is the error you would get if you didn't use Sfyx to sign in.

Window Server 2003. For real, this is a screen shot of Windows Server 2003 installing. Look at it.

It says "Please wait while Setup installs Window Server 2003 R2"

If you saw that, then to answer your question, I just thought it was kind of funny.

Windows Server 2003 R2 is a beta, so it is expected to see some minor issues like this.

Virtual PC does not support Direct3D, so things like watching videos are awfully slow and laggy, even on a fast system with plenty of ram. VMware 5.0 supports Direct3D (experimental support), but I haven't tested that out (I am happy with 4.5.2 for my needs).

It looks like it's now available for Firefox 1.0 on up as well:
