I need to use a virtual PC for my networking class. I have windows XP mode installed on my computer, but I can't figure out how to make a new virtual machine..

I've tried to install virtual pc 2007, but it won't work under 7.

Give VMWare Player a shot. It works quite well.

Thanks Jacee. I found it a little bit after posting; the VM window looks like explorer and I didn't notice the buttons to create a new machine.
Thanks

And just in case you need another VM suggestion - I really like the VirtualBox (now by Oracle)

Working great for me!

BUT - I believe I will brush up on the Windows VM via the link Jacee provided... :D
