Booting a linux partition within Windows that was previously installed.

I installed ubuntu on my laptop with the cd a few days ago, partitioned my drive and I'm using GRUB as my boot manager. I was wondering if any of programs that are similar to VMware or Microsoft Virtual PC, or something else would be able to boot my linux partition, without me having to install it over again within VMware or whatever program like this.
 
VMWare can use raw partitions so you could try booting your Linux installation in there, but as the hardware in VMWare will be different than what's really in your machine it might be a bit of work to get it to work properly.
