There is an entry called W7 VHD RAM in the list of the menu.lst file provided.
This is the one you will be using to load your VHD into RAM and boot Windows from it,
after you go through all of the steps of the guide, ofcourse.

Some of you will need to edit the name and path to you VHD file, highlighted in the picture.
Here you use a disk number and partition number instead of the drive letter - "(hd0,0)".
