Hi.

I'm not 100% sure about VMWare on FreeBSD (although I think only older
versions are currently available), but I'd give QEMU a try. It's in
ports at emulators/qemu. I've used Windows 2000 and Windows XP inside
QEMU a little bit in the past, and the performance was pretty good with
the KQEMU kernel module (emulators/kqemu-kmod).
