If you’re running a Quad/Dual Core CPU, you’ll have to change “Number of cores per processor” to “2″ then click Next.

 

 

 

Step: 8

 

 

 

For setting the RAM for yourVM you’ll need to change it to 1024MB (768 MB if you really are lacked of RAM) but I recommend 1024MB. Then you may click Next.

For New users you only have to choose “Create a new virtual disk” then click Next, a  window will ask for IDE or SCSI, just choose the Recommended option.

For Advance users you may choose “Use a physical disk” this means you’ll be using a  partitions or your main HD.

For this part you can choose the size of your HD to 10GB  since Windows XP don’t take too much space etc…

Choose Allocate all disk space now and Store Virtual  disk.
