Load existing W2K installation into Virtual PC Environment

Source: microsoft.public.virtualpc

Message:

This is probably a stupid question, but I am wondering if it is possible to
take an image of an existing W2K installation and load it into a Virtual PC
environment? In other words, I have a computer running W2K, and I would like
to take an image of this machine and load it as a Virtual PC on my Vista
desktop. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Do it the same way as you would with real computer. Use a program like
Ghost or Acronis.
