MagicAndre1981 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 VirtualPC (KB958559) installs on all WIn7 Editions (except Starter), so you don't need the Ultimate. Here is a guide to install Win98:http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2010/05/27/installing-windows-98-on-windows-virtual-pc.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjdbb1 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 To answer your question, yes, Windows XP, 98, etc. will run as 32-bit when using Virtual PC in Win7 x64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicAndre1981 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 VPC doesn't support 64Bit guests, so it can only run 32Bit guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
