    Dear all =)

    I had been searching all the info about this VHD and found Seven Forum.

    I got this BIG BIG confuse now can anyone please explain this to me???
    The difference between a Dual Boot and also a boot from VHD.

    And 1 more question. Am now having a Win7 64 Ultimate base and i wish to load in a Win Vista to VHD. Is this possible by not using the Vista Mode provide by Microsoft and by not using any 3rd party software?????

    Is it possible to load Win Vista on VHD and make it bootable by having Win 7 64 Ultimate as base????

    If yes, how to do it???

    Thank you so so so so much in ADVANCE~~~

    p.s/ Is Chinese New Year today... so... HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!!!!

    I can answer your second question. I'm not sure if it is possible to use Vista in XP Mode, but if you close your mind to third-party apps, you'll miss some very good ones. I much prefer VirtualBox (free) and VMWare Workstation (paid) over XP Mode.
