I have 20GB Hard drive with 256 MB RAM and Windows 2003 server is installed
on it with free space of 10GB. I downloaded Virtual Server 2005 R2 with SP1
and saved it on my desktop. When I tried to run, I get the message image
file is valid for a machine type other than the current machine. Can someone
help me with this? Why I am getting this error?

And with only 256 MB of RAM there's really no point even installing either
VPC or VS as you won't be able to run any virtual machines.

If you are running a 32-bit OS on the host, you need the 32-bit version of
Virtual Server (and 64-bit for a 64-bit OS).
