and why would you like to do that ?

anyways .. it's not possible to directly take a screenshot ..
but yes you can try indirect method ..
extract the relevant bitmaps from ntoskrnl.exe using resource hacker and view them

Use a digital camera.Take a snap (while the OS boots).
Connect the camera with the PC.
There you have it!!
Boot Screen Image ready.

yaaaa this is the best way to take a snapshot but in these virtual software u will have to first install the windows in it. I think vmware is best software as in we can also do n/w in it(between 2 os)
