Using Virtual PC to run Microsoft Money

Use Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 to run multiple operating systems at the same time on the same physical computer. Switch between virtual machines with the click of a button. Use virtual machines to run legacy applications, provide support, train users, and enhance quality assurance.

Virtual PC lets you create separate virtual machines on your Windows desktop, each of which virtualizes the hardware of a complete physical computer. Use virtual machines to run multiple operating systems at once on a single physical computer and switch between them as easily as switching applications - instantly, with a mouse click.

Virtual PC is perfect for the scenario in which you need to run Money in an isolated fashion on the same physical computer.

• If you've previously tried the trial version and wish to try it again with a new file
• Run two versions of Money at the same time
• Play 'what-if' on a Money file without any settings being changed on your 'live' version
• Run an older version of Money on an older version of Windows

Virtual PC is a free download from Microsoft.
