Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 SP1 is a free and easy to use application to virtualize your guest operating systems. Rather than trying to set up a multi-boot system and deal with annoying complexities, using virtualization software is much more simpler to use and manage in the long term. Virtual PC is especially helpful in those situations where you need to build a quick test lab when no other hardware is available. Virtual PC 2007 SP1 should be downloaded directly from the Microsoft web site. Depending on your version of the host Operating System, you can download either the 32 bit or 64 bit version.
