Opening an XP Window under OpenSuse 11.1

English Install/Boot/Login

Is there a way to open an XP Window without shutting down OpenSuse to boot into XP on a dual boot machine. I want to see if I can run a program from XP that I know will not run under Linux. I need to do some snapshots, using Ksnapshot because using Microsoft control +P doesn’t give the same results I need to post.

You can run xp in a virtual machine.
Also are you sure the app will not work in opensuse, it may work in wine.
What is the program you are trying to use?

Have a look at VirtualBox. It works very well for exactly that purpose.

Except for 3D acceleration and parallel port support.
