Install XP on a Win 8.1 VM

I have a Win 8.1 64 bit OS.   I have loaded down VM.  I want to buy an XP full install, install it, and run XP on the VM.
Do I need a 64 bit XP os or will any old XP do?

A full version 32-bit version of Windows XP should work just fine.

  • How do you install iTunes 7 in Win XP

    I dont have access to an Admin account on my computer, but want to upgrade my iTunes 6 to 7. I ran the installer in Safe Mode, but it failed when it tried to start the ipodservice... i retried 3-4 times, but it did not work and I had to cancel the installation, but i ended up with an updated Quick Time and iTunes 6.
    Does anyone know how to install iTunes 7 in Win XP? I could really use some help.
    Thanks

    i have the exact same problem
    i know why but i can't fix it
    ===
    when i had itunes 6 installed, i disabled/remove the ipodservice b/c i don't have an ipod
    when ipod 7 tried to install it removed the old ipodservice but the when it tried to install the new one, it could not b/c it had previously been disabled.
    i can't figure it out though...
    it has nothing to do with admin priviledges, it just has something to do with having the ipodservice disabled or banned from running on your system
    at least, that's what i think happened.

  • Download and install drivers and patches Win XP host with Solaris 10 guest

    Greetings. I would appreciate your help.
    Solaris 10 successfully installed as guest on Win XP host. (Using Parallels Workstation).
    Getting fatal IO error 146 (connection refused on Xserver "0.0" ... no screens found. Cannot bring up Xorg.
    Research strongly suggest video adapter settings. Adapter is Mobility Radeon 9800 - not on HCL but not new either.
    Since I cannot reach the Internet from Solaris, how do I download drivers and patches and transfer them to Solaris?
    Thanks Again,

    Hi,
    I am using a Nvidia 4200M adapter in my Laptop, Driver 266.96, Direct X 11
    In my desktop I am using an ATI XFX 6950, latest revision drivers (I am not at home right now so I cant get that info).
    The issue I did describe above, but it was a long explanation.
    In some flash games the game files load initially and get as far as the "click to start" button. Then the flash area usually goes either all white or all black (usually depending on the falsh game default background color) and then it stays that color. Cant see anything after hitting start (usually most games have an intro video or animation before the game starts, but I cant see any of it.
    For the very few games that do start, the flash game or application does not seem to work correctly in that when the rare game starts, it wont save any game files or save files to the pc and so if I exit the game (navigate away to another page or close browser) and then later come back, even though I click the option to save games (and ensure that the flash application slider shows it can save files and lots of space) it does not save and I have to start from the beginning all the time.
    More explanation I gave above.

  • Getting error message when trying to install Reader 9 on Win 7 64 bit w/IE 9

    I hope I can be concise and not have this all sound too convoluted but I am so confused by this time that I may not be able to hide it.   I have recently bought an HP Omni 220 PC, 64 bit, with Win 7, Intel Core i7, and IE9.  Reader didn't come installed and I have been battling for weeks now trying to get it set up.
    I couldn't get Reader 10 to install so I installed Reader 9 thinking to update to 10.  While I can open and read PDF files beautifully on my desktop, Reader 9 allowed me to open .PDF files online only about 2 times and then stopped.  When I tried to open a PDF link my IE 9 would crash and recover and tell me some problem had caused IE to have to close and recover.  I tried 'repairing' the installation through the "Repair" option on the drop down menu which you get when you right click on the .msi installer.  When the repair is running I get an error which reads:
    "Warning 1909.Could not create shortcut Adobe Reader 9.lnk.  Verify that the destination folder exists and that you can access it."
    I have no idea what destination folder this refers to or how to fix it.
    I uninstalled Reader 9, attempted again to install Reader 10.  I think I've figured out that the 10 installer (which disappears and nothing happens when I try to run it) is actually a program different from the actual installation program but I fear I'd just run into this same destination folder boo-boo with the 10 installation as I have the 9 installation.  At least the 9 will run without disappearing.
    In short, finally, how can I fix this Warning 1909 to get Reader 9 installed so that I can actually read PDF files in IE9 and hope to update to 10?
    Thank you,
    SouthCountryMom

    Ok, I have now gotten Reader 10 installed, can open files from my desktop but IE 9 keeps crashing when I try to open PDF files even though I exited and relaunched IE 9.  I did take ownership of all the folders containing Reader 10 and then clicked OK when I got the error notice about the shortcut being installed. I did make a copy of the crash error report and it reads as follows:

  • Easy to install Lion with BootCamp + Win 8 + NTFS partition for data?

    Hey, I have a MacBook Pro (2011) currently on OS X 10.6.8, but I bought Lion 10.7 and want to use that.
    Here's what I want to do:
    * install Lion (fresh, not upgrade)
    * install BootCamp
    * install Win 8 (DevEd) (for games and some other apps)
    And here are my questions:
    1) What's the best (free) way to save/"ghost" the current OS so I can quickly get back to that in case something happens when I install Lion?
    2) What order do I install BootCamp and Win 8 in? Any fool-proof tutorial for how to do this?
    3) If I do a backup with Time Machine as the last thing I do before installing Lion, I just copy the data back from the TM drive after install, right?
    4) I would like to use Win 8 and some programs there to read and write to the HFS+ OS X partition - is there a free and/or good way to do that?
    5) On PC I can use WinAmp, the great plugin "DeleteCurrentSong" and a shortcut key to delete the currently playing track. Is there a way to do something similar in any program in OS X?
    6) If not, would it be possible to - early in the install process - make a big NTFS partition and put most of my data there so it can be accessed from both OS X (with Paragon) and Windows? And Time Machine wouldn't back it up as long as it's NTFS, right?
    Thanks a lot for any answers!

    Answer to question 1:
    a. Get a USB disc the same size or better larger than your internal HD
    b. Download Carbon Copy Cloner (free)
    c. Clone the internal HD to the external disc
    d. Reboot with the 'option' key held down. Choose the external disc to check that the clone was successful and is bootable.
    e. If yes, reboot again, hodling down the 'option' key. Choose the internal HDD.
    f. Dismount/eject the external HD and disconnect it from your computer.
    g. Go to app store and download Lion.
    h. When the download is complete, DO NOT run it. First, copy the file (Applications > Lion Install.app) to another location on your disc (the downloads folder will do). This is because after you run the installer it will delete itself from the Applications folder, and you may very well either want/need to do a re-install later without wanting to wait for hours for the download.
    i. Run Applications > Lion Install.app

  • Unable to scan and install windows updates on Win 2008 R2 server

    I've encountered some of my win 2008 servers are unable to scan and receive windows updates from SCCM 2012. Browse through the logs and found some error code related to
    0x80244023. Excerpt from the WindowsUpdate and WUAHandler is as below. Searched the net and found some workaround which is to rename the registry key
    WinHTTPSettings to WinHTTPSettingsx (by adding x at the end of the string)
    under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Internet Settings -> Connections.
    I've did just that on the effected servers and after running again the Software Update Scan Cycle action, it is now able to scan and install the updates. My questions is, based on you guys experience, is there any repercussion (apart from enable to install
    software updates) that I could encounter in changing the registry key value WinHTTPSettings?

    Hi
    If SCCM is setup correctly and your boundaries are correct then once you deploy updates the agents will pick them up.
    Also make sure you SUP role has the FQDN set. Lastly if you are using port 8530 make sure it is open.

    Thank you

    Oracle Developler 11g is now called Oracle Fusion Middleware (FMw) 11g and can be downloaded from the Oracle Fusion Middleware Downloads page. You have to download and install WebLogic Server (WLS) 10.3.3 first, then scroll down and download and install Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer (11.1.1.3.0).
    When you install WLS, make sure you do not run the configuration step. When you install FMw, it will configure the WLS as part of it's configuration step.
    Hope this helps,

  • Ultranav won't install after upgrade to Win 7

    I upgraded from XP to Win 7 Ultimate. When I try to install the Win 7-compliant driver from the Lenovo site, the OS tells me that it's not compliant and "fixes" the problem by installing generic drivers that, of course, don't allow me to modify the Ultranav settings. Any thoughts?

    Please link to the driver file you tried to install and the name your system also. More information is always handy.
