    Microsoft do not support VPC 2007 on Vista Home Basic or Vista Home Premium. However, it runs perfectly.

     Do you get an error or something?

    Just ignore the message and click continue or okay, it'll install and
    run just fine -- all that means is that it's not a supported
    configuration by Microsoft.

    I don't really understand how your question relates to SCVMM.

    Can you describe what your issue is in greater detail?

    Okay.

    My OS is Windows Vista Home Premium. Then I downloaded Virtual PC 2007 to my desktop.

    It looks good, however a pop up message warned that it might be lacking of features because Vista doesn't support Virtual PC 2007.

    Therefore my question is that if I want to install a virtual pc without updating hardware or software, what is a solution?
