With one (HUGE) caveat: Running the windows partition under VB causes windows to detect that it is running on a totally different machine than it was installed on and registered with MS. Later when I tried to boot into the windows native partition (Dual Boot), it froze!!!! I had to call MS and tell them about the problem and they issued me a new key - and that allowed me to boot windows natively.
