Embedded VMs (XP VM Inside Win 7 VM)

Post by mjr161 »

I've been running two VM's side by side in seamless mode for quite some time, but I'm using the VMs for games and performance just isn't good. I am in need of a Win7 VM running in window mode and then inside of it doing a WinXP VM, which I will run in seamless... all on my 27" iMac i7.

Is this possible?

No. You can not run a hypervisor inside of a hypervisor.
