Did you misunderstand? (WinXP OEM)
Posted: 1. Apr 2009, 15:49
I asked in a tread about if it is possible for Guest-OS(WIn XP OEM) to see the physical hardware so it understand it is on a legal computer.
I was not asking to break any licens-agreement. My Dell Optiplex GX520 have an legal OEM lisence on WinXP Pro. Insted of running XP as primary OS, i wanted to run it virtual on the same computer that hold the OEM-license. But if it is not possible to make Virtualbox HW-transparent so XP can si the physical identification, then i cant run it like this.
I allready have a legal OEM of WinXP and with the certified Product-key on the computer, and the only different is to run XP virtual and not as primary.
I was not asking for breaking license-agreement! Im using the same media that came with the computer.
So to be sure here! If anyone who want to run WinXP as guest-OS, they need legal Volume-license and not OEM! Am i right? I only wanted to do the legal way!
You didnt have to lock the tread!
