I think VMWare Server is available for free. You could use that. Alternatively, you could also use the free VMWare Player and make an image using Qemu. I'm not really familiar with the whole process, and I've quite forgotten how I did that before in Windows. But I do remember the names, if they're of any help.

I downloaded and installed the free Vmware Player from here http://www.vmware.com/download/player/

Then I downloaded a Kubuntu "appliance" from here http://www.vmware.com/vmtn/appliances/directory/456

It has worked great for me.........using right now on top of WinXp home.....

It even uses the wireless interface on my laptop (that Kubuntu can't natively because of broadcom wireless chip)

Hope this info helps.
