    If Windows 7 home premium will run Windows virtual PC why won't it run
    the Virtual XP that runs on Windows 7 Ultimate trial currently?
    A virtual machine shouldn't be checking what host is running the machine
    should it?

    Because the Windows XP VM is licensed only to be used as part of the Virtual
    XP mode in Windows 7. It's not licensed for use in any other version of
    Windows nor for any other use than the one it was provided for.
