Thats a solutions that I will explore some more as well. Im trying to tie in my computer in the setup somehow as well beause I only have a 4 port router and right now 3 ports are being used. Once I add the Core Computer to the setup, it will take a port as well. If I had to built a hybrid system, it would take 2 ports to get everything I would want working at which point I would be short 1 port 

Ill keep reading up on this, thanks again

So I guess it's technically possible ... it's just going to be a major headache from what I understand and I'm better off just building a Hybrid system apart from my computer to work with ?

Thanks in advance,

This is my first time posting so I'm hoping my question doesn't seem to noobish to people. 

In any case, I use to be a big gamer but now a days I find myself gaming less frequently. That being said, I've been reading on how to install a Linux MCE network server. I know you can have a Hybrid server which does the work of a Core/Media center but what I wanted to know is if this is possible.

I want to use my PC as the Core/Media Centre while still using my PC as my gaming/internet surfing box. I was hoping to get a dual monitor system going with one screen displaying the Linux MCE interface while the other one has a Virtual PC running Windows 7 64 bit on it where I could play most of my games and such.

Here are my PC specs.
Motherboard: Asus M3A78-T
Athlon 955 Quad Core 3.2GHZ with 6mb L3 Cache
8 Gigs of Ram
2x Hard Drives (1.5 TB HDD and a 750 GB HDD both running at 7200RPM)
nVidia GeForce GTX 275 896mb (PNY)
TV Tuner Card
2x DvD Burners

Thanks for any advice ahead of time
