  1. as i use virtualbox for my virtual fun then thats what my guide here is for. vmware you have to buy to create your own images (i know you can do it with player with some fiddling) where virtualbox is free for private use

    http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads - install virtualbox, add new machine where you select windows and something like 15gb drive (i would choose dynamic size to keep it down), when you run the machine first time it asks for a install image/disk, from there it's just like installing windows on a normal machine. once windows is complettly installed shut it down again and choose settings for your virtual machine, look for video options and eneable 3d support. start your virtual machine again and enter failsafe mode (spam F8 i believe it is), once in press CTRL to release your mouse and install guest additions (found in one of the menues of the virtual machine window) once installed reboot and you should be good to go

    i might have forgotten something as im not at home right now and can't look at my own settings but im quiet sure i got it all

    if you want i could do a more detailed guide later on

    Thanks Benom, I had VM Ware and was putting up with the choppy video. Today I tried virtualbox and its 100% better. I am actually going to run 2 instances of it now since it allows me to switch screens so easily.
