This is how you get Virtual PC 2007 SP1 working fully on Windows 8 64 bit.
Software you need to download before following these steps.
Virtual PC 2007 SP1 64 bit. (http://www.microsoft...s.aspx?id=24439)
Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone.* (http://www.microsoft...s-windows-phone)

*Note: The reason you need Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone is because it has an updated emulation driver, which Virtual PC
will use if installed.
---------------------1) After you have downloaded both files install Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone first.
2) Once you have installed Visual Studio for Windows Phone, rename Virtual PCs installer filename from setup.exe to VPCSetup.exe.
3) Now launch VPCSetup.exe.
4) After you have installed it. Type C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Virtual PC in the address bar of the File Explorer and press Enter.
5) Now rename Virtual PC.exe to Virtual PC 2007.exe.
6) Now launch Virtual PC 2007.exe and it should run as normal.
---------------------Note: If it BSODs when launching a VM you have not installed the correct software.
