What will happen if I install 2 operating systems on one pc(2gb RAM only)?

I only want to know whats the worst that could happen. Will my motherboard melt? Will my both os be corrupt? Will my pc become so slow that could not even shove movement of my mouse?
Just tell me whats the worst that could happen.
fyi-I will be trying to install ubunto 32-bit on my pc which already has win7 32-bit.

the worst case is it wont boot and you will have to format the Disk and start again. make sure you put it on a separate partition on the HDD. Most times you will get a choice on which one to boot in to as a primary OS. Then if you want to change the OS you can use an F key during boot to swap to the other OS.

EDIT: If you are wanting to run a Virtual Machine you will not have enough ram to do so using those OS's.
