Several Gigabyte motherboards seem to have a bios issue with Windows Virtual PC and Windows 7 -- threads discussing this and a review articale are here -- we can just hope they fix it for our boards:

Cannot start Windows Virtual PC while another virtualization software is running.
Gigabyte motherboard users (incl. GA-MA790GP-DS4H)
I opened a service request with Gigabyte for my boards.
Good luck
Gigabyte gave me a new bios for my motherboard that fixed the problem for me today.
Well that's some great news to share here then! Glad to see they got that sorted out for you there.
It WORKS!!!
Finaly,after BIOS update VPC WORKS!!!
That's great! Now be prepared to go through the entire process all over again since the RTM versions of both the VPC and XP Mode are now available at the MS site. You no longer see the RC label since MS wanted that ready for 10/22 on 7's launch date!
