Is it possible to put windows XP on windows 10 via Hyper V?

Product key for XP not working in Hyper V

But my point is, the CD key I'm entering CAME OFF THE WINDOWS XP disc! ...WHY and how would or could that not be valid , since it came off the actual disc? Plus, why would Hyper V not be compatible with XP, since one of the very purposes of Hyper V is
to possibly run OLDER OS's thru it, for compatibility testing,etc. Lastly, there are actual step by step tutorials with pictures where guys are using Hyper V to run XP et al on Windows 10, so there's that...

I can't be certain why your copy of XP has been flagged as invalid.

XP is not listed:

Supported Windows guests

I've been able to use XP in Windows 7 & 8 Hyper-V, but never 10. Though I never tried all that hard to get it to work either as it was more of an experiment than anything I really wanted to use.

 

Configuring sound with Windows 98 and XP on Hyper-V.

Hi Zazabar, welcome to the Ten Forums.

Hyper-V only supports audio in these two cases:

• Hyper-V Enhanced Mode > guest must be Windows 8 or later, Windows Server 2012 R2 or later
• Remote Desktop Connection > all Windows guests, also legacy versions (Windows 7 and earlier)

For instance I get the audio on my Windows XP Pro virtual machine in Hyper-V when starting it from the Hyper-V Manager, then connecting to it from host using Remote Desktop.
