    I tried Win10 on WinXP (XP as host) and found out that you can install Win10, but you will need a LOT of patience since you can only assign 1.5GB of RAM to the VM since XP is a 32bits OS and can only see 2.9GB of RAM since MS disabled PAE on XP. I also tried with xp 64bits but virtualbox can't install. Don't have 2k3 server ATM, but I assume that you will be able to install on the 32bits release more easily since PAE is enabled on the server editions of Windows.

    you could try it on windows xp 64 bit to see what happens. And it'd need to be a p4 prescott to meet the minimum requirements for windows 10, anything less literally doesn't have enough coding. And there is video evidence of it working (on a desktop at least)
    It'd also be interesting to see how it runs if windows 10 is tweaked for performance for low end machines as much as possible and given the best scenario hardware (to prove how out of date it is, and what the result would be to upgrade such a machine to show the bottlenecks (temporarily upgrade of course) High end gpu (by modern standards), max ram speed the motherboard can support.
    And to be fair if you really want to see the true potential of a p4, there are socket 775 boards with DDR3 support (Dell made some, there are non oem but those are harder to get) It'd also be interesting to put a pentium D extreme edition (2 core with hyperthread) to the same task in the same settings and try to use it in modern use scenarios (technically its capable enough if that is done but barely from what i've seen)

    You need VMware 9 to do this.

    @ephemeralViolette 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I tried this on VMware 9 on XP 64-bit. It doesn't work either.
    However, I did get it to work by installing a Windows 7 VM, then installing VMware 15 in that, then installing a Windows 10 VM in the Windows 7 VM in Windows XP.

    Although Windows 32bit is limited to 4GB, Windows itself reserves 2GB to the OS and the other 2GB for the rest of the applications.
    There's a 3GB switch to enable Windows XP to let the applications use 3GB instead of 2GB, you can try it following these instructions at:

    You can actually do it but you need to give a better specs I need more than 16 MB in the video display settings do you need to set it to Windows 88.1 to 10 on the virtual box general settings depending on your version of windows are trying to get a need to tweak the settings so it gets more resources so we could actually boot and then when you’re done you need to install the virtual machine tools which can be yet with the expansion pack on the website also by downloading the William’s version of virtual box so you have compatibility

    @lainwired3946 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Itd be slow but couldn't you run a more modern linus inside a vm in XP, then run windows 10 inside virtual box inside that? I imagine youd get a recent distros of debian to boot fine. Even if you can get into vista somehow then emulate onwards?

    Is better if you install something lower than the host OS. I use Windows 7 but Windows Vista kinda hogs. Windows XP and lower runs more efficiently.

    OOOh the only reason its not booting because you did NOT give it amd vt-x or intel vt support in the vm which you could do in vmware which is the only why windows 10 could not boot cause it was trying to use sse2, pae, and NX instructions that the vm did not have due to no virtualization support available in it.
