Wanting to Downgrade so Virtual XP?

I remember there was a way to have a virtual OS run on a comp. Right now I am running tiny7 on my laptop and I seriously do not want to worry about trying to figure out what drivers work and don’t work with my laptop, so I’d rather test it on a “virtual” one rather than waste my time on reformatting only to get into this problem.
OR, if anyone has the same laptop of mine and can help me specifically find the drivers. I remember I tried to scour the toshiba site for the drivers and there’s this thread. However I also remember during the process everything was such a problem and a pain to obtain the correct drivers…Then the ones I did find got wiped out when my external accidentally got wiped clean.
Much help appreciated. I only want to downgrade because from experience it seems xp is better than 7, but I’m not sure.
