It may seem unbelievable but i have got this software that enables you to run more that one operating system on your Computer and also enable you to switch between multiple operating systems without rebooting or restarting your computer join me in this jolly ride:

Virtual Box is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is Virtual Box an extremely
feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source
Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)
Presently, Virtual Box runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not
limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4 and 2.6), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, and

OpenBSD:
Virtual Box is being actively developed with frequent releases and has an ever growing list of features, supported guest operating systems and
platforms it runs on. Virtual Box is a community effort backed by a dedicated company: everyone is encouraged to contribute while Oracle ensures the
product always meets professional quality criteria.

1.1 Why is visualization useful?
The techniques and features that VirtualBox provides are useful for several scenarios:
Running multiple operating systems simultaneously. VirtualBox allows you to run more
than one operating system at a time. This way, you can run software written for one
operating system on another (for example, Windows software on Linux or a Mac) without having to reboot to use it. Since you can configure what kinds of “virtual” hardware should
be presented to each such operating system, you can install an old operating system such
as DOS or OS/2 even if your real computer’s hardware is no longer supported by that
operating system.
