That has not been necessary on my Windows XP system. Both DW3 and the current 
DW4 will work with the .vhd disks used with MESS and VCC without changing anything.

Richard,

Are you referring to the .vhd disk on the VCC site? If so, are you interested in 
the NitrOS-9 section or the Disk Basic section of the .vhd images?

Once you solve your size problem, you will need to do some fiddling to get the 
.vhd images to work the way they do with VCC or MESS.
