    What do u mean by simulation? A demo of Windows XP, like all the fancy colours... or something else?

    Wouldn't u have to clear that sort of thing with MS first?

    With MS' new lisences you could get a copy of a WinXP CD and install it. However you would only get 30 days of free trial.

    PS.I think

    End If

    Do you mean you want such a program that simulates partitions and let you install over 5 different OS'es on your system?

    i dont think so i wouldnt go makeing copys of XP for free trails the MSthugs will hunt you down

    the 30 day thing is when you buy XP and install it you must register online within 30 days or XP will not let you use it until u do also if you try to register XP twice see the last part of the paragraph above

    Well, hi there! Remember me?

    You can't make something like that in VB because it would require rebooting to DOS, and you can't make DOS utilities in VB (or, with VBDOS 1, you can't partition).
