The vitual pc for windows 7 is limited at best. You can still use that image with something called VMWARE. Or if you like, In the settings of the vitual pc you can add a image file to the cdrom device. with this image(winxp.iso/or other) you can install any version you like. VMWARE has more options that will work with more formats.
