Along the lines of that, if I just wanted a clean, test instance of my
current operating system - does it count as a licence issue if I install it
on a virtual machine that runs within my normally used instance of the same
licenced installation?
In other words, while I would be making use of 2 copies of the same licence,
it would however be on the same physical machine.
Suppose it might actually cause validation issues if they were both online
at the same time as well.
Not too important/relevant as such, but just wondering.
Stay well

A virtual machine is just that another machine. You will need to buy an
unused copy of the retail version of XP (try EBay) and install it into
a newly created virtual machine.

Hi,
I was wondering if it would be possible to obtain a Windows XP virtual
machine. I already have VMware player installed. I did some browsing on
the Internet, but it looks like I need to insert my Windows XP cd, which
I don't have Windows xp. Isn't the purpose of a vm is so you can run it
without a cd?
If anyone could direct to any links on the WEB where I may be able to
download a virtual machine, either Windows XP home or pro, that would be
much appreciated.
Thank you.
