Windows on my wife's Dell 4700C finally imploded. Since the opportunity
to "fix" it was presented, I added dual-booting Suse 10.2 after reinstalling
XP. It occurs to me now with a complete XP install on its own partition
separate from linux, shouldn't it somehow be possible to run both at the same
time?

So, is there a way to run Windows XP already installed on its own partition
from within SuSE? Or would I be required to reinstall Windows from within
some kind of emulation or virtualization framework?

VMWare workstation can do this, but it is payed product. I'm not sure
if you can do this with the free VMPlayer.
