There are different versions of virtual PC. For example long time ago I used  Virtual PC on my Mac OS 9.

Just find the version suitable for the system that you have. 

Please read carefully the installation instructions and the specifications. Here the last version Virtual PC 7.

Hi

I will help to download virtual pc for mac OS X Lion. The Microsoft VirtualPC was designed to run on old PowerPC architecture.

So your Mac laptop with Lion operating system will not support it.

If you want to run Microsoft Windows 7 on your Mac, then you can buy VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktop from Mac App Store.

They let you run Windows on Mac with virtualization technology.
