Windows XP on VM Workstation 12 help

[Almond Joy]

I am trying to use Windows XP on VM Workstation 12 Pro and problem with installation.

Any help is appreciated!

 

Okay so the fix for this is a little fucky. You need to get the SCSI drivers and inject them into the VM. I *think* the following link is ok: http://sciencespaces.com/search/VMware+VMSCSI+Controller/

I can't find a guide specifically on how to do it but this guide should be relatively similar:
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/mi...nguage=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2041362

Follow it very loosely since you're not upgrading from XP, you're installing it.

Hope that helps.

All this is unnecessary, it's very easy to install an XP OS on VMware.

Are you using a physical CD / DVD or an ISO?
