Virtual Machine for Gaming--- Host is Vista 64 Business; I want XP Pro 32bit as guest
I hope I can do this, and I hope I can game from within XP Pro.
Virtual PC 2007 Free Download from MS
I like my Vista 64 bit Business gaming machine. I have a Q6600, some new nVidia graphics card (I forget; 8800 something) 4 Gb memory. Some games play fine in Vista, but many do not.
I hope to install XP Pro as a guest within the Vista 64 Business using the Virtual PC 2007. I've never done a VM before, and I have some concerns.
Will the XP Pro get to use the full functionality of the nVidia graphics card so games can be played at 1600x1200? If I can't use the graphics card for games, that would be a deal breaker for me.
Thanks in advance.
Let me know if I missed anything!
