please use search engines to answer questions like that!

VirtualBox
VirtualBox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

the two links should answer all your questions about vbox. if you go for dualboot, search the web for something like "solaris windows dual boot" and you might find something like this:
How to Setup Dual Boot Systems

please come back if you've specific questions/errors/problems with your setup.

thanks,
