Are you an Ubuntu fan who still needs to run the occasional Windows app? Then we found a guide for you.

This guide allows you to convert your existing Windows installation into a virtual machine file that can then be used with Vmware. The guide discusses how to install the free Vmware Player on your Ubuntu installation and get it configured to run your converted Windows installation. For more information read the guide below.
