SUMMARY

Virtual PC only supports the reading of data from CD-Rs, CD-RWs, DVDs, and DVD-ROMs. Virtual PC only emulates a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive.

Virtual PC does not support burning CD-Rs, CD-RWs, DVDs, or DVD-ROMs in Microsoft Windows even if the host Macintosh PC has the appropriate hardware and software to do so. Virtual PC also does not support the use of Windows-based CD-ROM or DVD burning software.
