How to Boot a Virtual PC Network
Microsoft Virtual PC creates and runs virtual machines. Guest operating systems install and run on the virtual machine's virtual hardware as if they were running on a physical machine, allowing one computer to have several operating systems running at the same time. Virtual PC virtual machines, like normal computers, can boot from a variety of devices, including the virtual hard disk, floppy disk, CD or from a network device. Unlike other virtual machine programs, Virtual PC doesn't have a graphical user interface for selecting the boot device; select it in the virtual machine's BIOS.
