"I assume you mean run an application like VS Express in a virtual environment so it doesn't run the risk of affecting your machine? I don't know where the 30 days comes from - VS Express is free and has no time limit.
Well, the good news is that there are several pieces of software out there for this, such as VirtualBox (my personal favourite), VMWare and Virtual PC.
One bit of bad news is that your PC is a little underpowered for this. You'll also need a good hard disk and plenty of space. You also should have a license for each VM installation of XP."
