Windows XP

Installing Windows XP in VirtualBox

Before starting:

• Install VirtualBox, and the Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack (for usb 2.0 support)
• Create a Partition for Windows XP (mine was 52GB)
• In your Bios, under the Chipset menu in your bios Enable VT-X (on Outrider, the option is Intel Enhanced Virtualization)

Installation: I chose to use the x86 version of windows, since when XP was released, x64 was not well supported, and I do not need that much ram to print or scan images.

Option	Size	Description
Ram Usage	4gb	Dedicates X amount of ram to your windows installation
Disk Size	Dedicated 52gb	The amount of memory that Virtualbox can see and use

To be able to use USB:

• install Oracle VM Virtual Box Extension Pack
• Rclick on your virtual machine and click Settings
• under usb, check Enable USB 2.0 Controller
• on the right side of the screen, click the + sign, and add the usb drive you want automatically present when loading.
