Red Hat WS 4 + Virtual PC 2007 = error (13)
Yesterday, I installed Vista Ultimate Business on a laptop, followed by Visual Studio 2008 and Virtual PC. Next, I installed Red Hat WS.
However, when I booted the Red Hat WS 4 image, I received the following error: "An internal virtual machine error (13) has occurred. The virtual machine will reset now." Nice.
To resolve this error, first boot in single user mode:
- In GRUB menu select Red Hat Linux with the version of the kernel that you wish to boot and type e for edit. You will be presented with a list of items in the configuration file for the title you just selected.
- Select the line that starts with kernel and type e to edit the line.
- Go to the end of the line and type single as a separate word. Press enter to exit edit mode.
- Back at the GRUB screen, type b to boot into single user mode.
Next, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace set the Driver to "vesa". Also, set the DefaultDepth to 16 from 24. The implementation of the S3 hardware doesn't support a colordepth of 24 and will cause the error 13.

I am experiencing the same problem while installing Linux Fedora Core2 on VPC 2007. I keep on receiving this error message "An internal virtual machine error (13) has occurred. The virtual machine will reset now." Can you help?
