Microsoft VMs. I wish to play with Vista Beta 2. Can I do any thing like

I have 4GB RAM for on my machine from whjich I can donate 2 GB RAM to Vista
VM thats not an issue. Hard disk space is also not an issue.

Can somebody give me tips for the installation.

Thanks
 
Its worth a try, but as with any beta, there is always the likely
possibility of failure. Try burning the ISO at a very low speed, 2x
recommended. If setup fails, try extracting the contents of the ISO to a
folder in the VM and run setup from there or try using Virtual Drive tools
such as Daemon Tools or NERO Image drive. You can upgrade from Windows 2000
or 2003 only XP SP2 is supported for upgrades at this time to Vista x86.
