can some one help with my existing problem?

OK. Just checking you do followup. Giving answers and then hearing nothing is quite disappointing IMHO.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows...C#Linux_guests is doubtful about running Linux in VPC.
The top of that page says "Other operating systems such as Linux may run, but are not officially supported, and Microsoft does not provide the necessary "Virtual Machine Additions" (which include essential drivers) for Linux"
http://vpc.visualwin.com/ shows you need special settings like SafeMode
So ... have you considered using VirtualBox? It's free, it runs on Windows, and it runs Ubuntu very well.

i used VirtualBox but there was problem with mouse pointer.
it is giving me hard time when i try to click on maximize the web browser page, the cursor move to 0,0 (Top Left)
