Windows 7 now allows you to boot a native OS from a VHD file | |

IT pro Brad Bird explains how to use the new capability in Windows 7 to boot an OS natively from within a VHD file rather than the standard method of dual booting. Earlier this year, I configured my Dell Latitude E6500 laptop to dual boot from Windows 7 installed locally, to Windows Server 2008 on an externally connected eSATA hard disk. This process works fine and is the traditional method of booting to a native environment from a PC. New to Windows 7, is the ability to leverage an existing VHD file and boot to the environment contained in it natively. | ||
