For testing and presentation puropuses I have installed inside my full Windows server 2008 64 BIT installation with Hyper-V another standalone Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008 - everything works – you can even manage it using Hyper-V manager from other server but you can not (obviously! 
) run virtual machines. You get an error saying unable to create partition. You should be a wirdo to even think about souch stuff but I had a chance and I just could not resist pressing the START button. So you know now… Hyper-V inside Hyper-V does not work!

“I’ve found an even easier way to do this. I found a PowerShell Hyper-V script at:
http://www.codeplex.com/PSHyperv
It has a lot of functions already, and I added a “Kill-VM” function that automates the kill process:
Kill-VM <VM name>
My modified script is attached to this message.
To use it, you need to install PowerShell (Under Server Manager -> Features in Win2008). Once installed, run PowerShell from Start -> Search, find the script, and type:
. .\hyperv.ps1
Once loaded into memory, type:
Kill-VM <VM Name>
Enjoy”
