Windows Server 2008 Backup

[Guest Andrew]

I've done a "All Critical Volume" Backup on a Domain controller

it produces a VHD file which I suppose I can mounted and open it in Virtual

PC

 

then I insert it and power on the Virtual PC, whole computer hanged up

 

I can view the content of the VHD by using tools "WinImage"

 

is it intended to be used like this or just my thought?

 

btw I am using Windows Server 2008 RC0 Hyper V 64bit

 

and I ran "wbadmin start backup -allcritical -backuptarget:f:
