Virtualize physical OS

[Peter CCH]

Hi, anyone here did virtualize physical OS before?
I have a Windows Server 2003 machine, which I need to virtualize it, so
that I can run the virtualize copy in Virtual PC. Do some testing on
it, until the testing was done and works fine, then only apply the
changes to the real machine.

Anyone able to help?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not quite sure what you're getting at. The usual method of making a
virtual machine is to install the OS in VPC. I have no idea how you
would go about "virtualizing" an extant OS but the right place to ask
would be in the Virtual PC newsgroup.

Here is a list of all the MS newsgroups so you can find the Virtual PC
one:
