So you have a Mac, and you want to install Virtual PC? You did by the Mac version, right? Are you getting this error after rebooting your Mac or rebooting the virtual system?

Yes. You must install Windows in order to run Windows. I don't mean that to sound flip, as this is a fairly common misconception. Basically, the Virtual PC application merely emulates the CPU of a Windows-based machine. You still must have the Windows OS. In most cases a version of the OS is sold with the Virtual PC application.
