How to install Windows XP on Hyper-V virtual machine?

Great!!! I've succeeded at last and have created virtual Xp Thanks a lot for the Hairy fool for his

attempts to help In fact the most valuable info was at Virtual Machine download page, where from I've downloaded
the virtual machine for windows XP

 

Thanks for hook up. . .*Thumbs

 

Nice tutorial! *Thumbs

I will have to do the Edge preview! *Smile

 

Hmm, interesting. I wish it didn't expire though. It would be nice to run I.E. or Edge in Linux that has protected content support.

 

Why would you need a virtual machine to test out Edge?

Try it out, and if you don't like it, use another browser.

 

I use a multiple boot system

Windows 7
Windows 10
Linux OS
Linux OS


I was thinking of going to windows 10 permanently still dual boot with Linux system using gpt and secure boot but I found out that could be a pain in the neck. The reason I was thinking about this is to avoid getting the ransomware

I know you can use I.E. sort of on Linux in wine but it doesn't work to well. Since it is a VM, I can use I.E. or Edge on Linux and it would possibly support protected content, have not tested that in Linux yet.

 

I like the cross-platform commonality of Firefox on my Windows, Mac OS X and Linux computers. Firefox comes with most Linux Distros. I recently downloaded an .iso of Linux LXLE to create the bootable/runnable DVD and it included Mozilla's SeaMonkey which includes an E-Mail Client, actually pretty nice. SeaMonkey is also cross-platform.

The notes accompanying the license terms "highly recommend" that you circumvent the time-limitation of the trial by snapshotting your VM to rollback to, as the time limit expiry approaches!

Hi there

Why not run a Windows VM on your Linux OS(es) - VBOX / VMWARE work fine on most Linux Hosts -- I'm currently on a W10 VM on CENTOS 7 Host. Much better than any sort of Dual booting.

I have Windows for Office 2016 (Ms office with Outlook) is still easily the best office application around - especially if you use a lot of Excel while grabbing data from the Internet in real time, plus a couple of Corporate apps and a SAPGUI to connect to various corporate SAP systems. All these run just fine on a VM.

To convert / create a VM from an existing Windows machine you can simply run the Free VMware converter (part of Vsphere) or why not simply use your W7 system to get a FREE W10 system you can install as a VM -- the Free upgrade still has a few months to run.

To install vmware player on Linux you'll probably need to install Kernel headers but it's all pretty automatic with a decent GUI for install. Vmware player is still free -- note though latest release is only 64 bit although of course you can run 32 bit VM's if you want to.

Things like Netflix / other protected content should still work fine on your VM - although some of these can run natively on Linux -- the main problem is Microsoft still using Silverlight which some protected content uses (for example Sky GO).

For streaming and serving I exclusively use my Linux Boxes (X2) which I use as a NAS -- PLEX, SQUEEZEBOXSERVER etc run just fine on these plus Networking is so much superior to Windows that IMO the VM idea is far better. Just look at the threads in the Networking area of the Forum to see what a cludge Windows Networking still is. SAMBA IMO works usually every time flawlessly for Linux / Windows sharing.

One Caveat though -- if you are into Gaming then a Windows VM might not be able to "cut it". Although IMO if you really are a serious gamer you might be better off with a dedicated machine anyway -- just my take though.

Cheers
