Hi All

Thinking about trying Windows 7. Can I install it in virtual PC? My computer is running XP Pro. 3ghz and 1 gig of ram.
Don't think I want to set it up for dual boot yet. I have never run virual PC. Much to install a operating system into it?

Thanks, Doug

Any OS will run on virtual partition. I have Vista computer with 4 OSes on virtual partitions: Win 7, , XP, Win 2K, and 98.
Which program are you planning to use, MS Virtual PC, or VMWare?
