>>>>I notice a product called Disk2VHD. It would allow me to clone my current OS into a Visual Machine (.vhdx format). Cool. My question is will this work under Windows 10 Home? or will need to upgrade the OS. If it will work, how then? I do not see any VM program in my Start Menus.

The main annoyance I'd run across with Virtual PC is that it appears to be limited to hosting 16-bit and 32-bit VMs.

Yah, after my last post I kind of figured that was the problem. Unfortunately I only have the one drive on this laptop.


Thanks for the help.
