I didn't expect it to work but it was worth a shot. At least it went through the boot sequence.

Vista works in Virtual PC on Windows/x86, but you need a pretty quick CPU and hard drive to get it to install. If the installer takes too long to complete (>4hr or so), it will abort the install (I had this happen trying to install it in VPC once while I was doing other things).
