Apr 21, 2011  Creating a Windows 7 Virtual Machine. Select the drive where to install the virtual machine. You can also select Drive options for more advanced configuration settings. On the Drive options menu, you will see options for formatting the drive, creating or deleting partitions, change the partition size, etc.

Most of the desktops and laptops today come with Windows Vista preinstalled. But if you are planning to try out the new Windows 7 operating system then VPC (Virtual PC) is the best way to install. It’s completely safe and easy to install an operating system in VPC without creating a new partition to install new one.

1. I also have and prefer Windows 7. I run Other OS's (Windows 8.1 and Windows 10) in VMWare Workstation and I am very satisfied. VMWare Workstation is a paying product. The free alternative would be to run Windows 10 in VMWare Player. While VM runs fine in VMWare Player, you may need to install OS on VMWare Workstation or another VMWAre product.
2. Nov 07, 2018  14. Now, you can install all the required programs for your Windows 7. You can close the Virtual PC with a simple click on the “close”(top right) button. To open your Virtual 7 once again, type “Virtual PC”(without quotes) in the Start menu and select your Virtual Windows 7 from the box and click “Start”. You are done!!

Though you can dual boot Windows 7 with Vista (Vista installed first), it’s a good idea to use Virtual PC to install Windows 7 inside the already installed Vista. For those who don’t know, Microsoft Virtual PC let’s you run multiple operating systems at the same time on the same physical system. You can switch between two operating systems within seconds.

Also read my “10 Things to remember before installing Windows 7” guide to make sure things work fine.

In this tutorial we will show you how to install Windows 7 inside Windows Vista using Microsoft Virtual PC.

Requirements:

* Windows 7 DVD

4. Select “Create a virtual machine” option from the available three options. I prefer this option as this lets you customize as you like. Click “Next”.

6. Select the operating system that you would like to install using Virtual PC from the drop down box. In this tutorial we choose “Other” since Windows 7 option is not available in VPC as of now . After selecting the operating system, click “Next”.

7. If you have more than 1GB of RAM in your system, select “Adjusting the RAM” else select “Using the recommended RAM”. If you have chosen “Adjusting the RAM” then, select the amount of RAM you would like to allocate to run Virtual machine (Windows 7) and click “Next”. (By default, it will use 662 MB of RAM, if you like to keep as it is, blindly click “Next”).
