In the Select a Disk window, you can add the system disk you installed earlier or create a new virtual disk here. NVMe is supported by current operating systems as it is a new disk controller.

You may also see the warning that XP cannot be installed on the NVMe disk. Because Microsoft has ended its support for XP, SATA disk structure is not supported, but some hosts provide SATA type and USB 3.0 support. Here you need to select the SCSI disk type that is selected by default.

In the Select a Disk Type window, select which disk controller you want to install the virtual system with. If you want to connect to the Internet after installing the virtual operating system, select Bridged or NAT in the Network Type window and click Next.Ĭlick the Next button to continue with the LSI Logic option selected by default in the I/O Controller window. Likewise, you can assign a 4 GB RAM size to the virtual computer or choose the maximum memory size according to the RAM capacity of your physical computer. If you have a fast PC and for faster installation, you can configure 1 processor and 8 core values to the virtual machine. In the Processor Configuration window, configure the number of processors and cores for XP depending on the hardware features of your computer. To change the installation location of the VM, click the Browse button in this window and select the relevant location in the window that opens. In the Location section, if you want to store the virtual machine on a USB 3.0 or 3.1 external disks, configure the relevant location. In the Name the Virtual Machine section, type the name of the operating system you will install. Since you will install XP on the VM in the Select a Guest Operating System window, first select Microsoft Windows, then select Windows XP Professional from the Version section and click Next. Select I will install the operating system later and click Next as it would be better to create a new virtual machine with advanced settings for the operating system in this step. Next, select Workstation 17.x for VMware virtual machine compatibility, and then click the Next button. If you are installing on an older version, you will not be able to select 17.x, so update Workstation Pro.
