Download and install Microsoft Virtual PC: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/overview.mspx

Virtual PC emulates a standard PC and its associated hardware. Thus, it can be used to run nearly all operating systems available for the PC.

how does this virtual pc thing work, and can i install xp on it, without having to turn vista off, reboot, insert disk, and create partitions. Basically, i want to know how u install a second os on this virtual pc program. Thanks for your help!!!
