Make sure your virtual bridge is setup correctly. Can you ping from physical IP to virtual IP. I am not sure how VirtualPC handles the bridge. If it is anything like VMWare you will have a reference in network properties as well as device manager. I've used VirtualPC before but it's been awhile and I didn't have any real problems with it to troubleshoot. You have to make the interface shared if I remember correctly. Should be on the properites of the VM.

you have to change the network options for the virtual machine properties to shared NAT iirc. I have never tried to network between 2 inside a PC, I always just have them briged to the real interface, and get IP's from the DHCP server.
