Failed to connect to host files: WNetAddConnection2W

Booting up an XP VM i get "Failed to connect to host files: WNetAddConnection2W" saying a parameter is not valid after waiting about 10 minutes on a black screen.

Any ideas how to bypass it trying to connect to host files as it is not really important, or a fix for it (waiting 10 minutes is a bit annoying). It only started happening when i changed the network mode to bridged.

The User files feature uses

The User files feature uses a network mount from the LivePC to Host and is only supported in NAT mode. If you do not need user files, try removing the user name from the registry.

HKLM\Software\moka5\GINA

You can also uninstall the moke Guest tools if necessary.

If you need both bridged

If you need both bridged networking *and* the LivePC documents folder, you can also try adding another NAT network interface in addition to the bridged one. This is the technique we used for the Ubuntu 7.04 LivePC.
