Once you enabled Hyper-V role on Windows Server 2008, you will not be able to install VMWare Player or Server. First will complain that it cannot be installed on Windows 95, 98 or 2000 - fair enough, but totally misleading - latter will give error message noting that you have to disable Hyper-V.
It appears that you cannot run both hypervisors at the same time, but there is a light of hope.

1) run the following "as administrator" in console - it will give you some GUID
bcdedit /copy {default} /d "No Hypervisor"
2) now copy\paste this GUID into the following:
bcdedit /set {GUID} hypervisorlaunchtype off
3) reboot - now you have a "No Hypervisor" boot option
P.S.: I also disabled all "Hyper-V ... " windows services, probably it was an overkill...
