John thanks for the response. I was a user of win4lin several years a 
ago but migrated to VMWare server which is free and much more robust. In 
fact I had Virtual PC in the NTFS partition and VMWare server in the 
ext2 partitions. I Use both in my work, mainly demonstration for my 
classes. I have never installed VMWare  into ubuntu but several have so 
should be a snap for you. Go to www.vmware.com and select the Products 
and Server Virtualization Products and look at all the vmware apps 
available, and almost all are free.

Thanks again for the help.
