    I managed to boot but it says no wims/esds were found despite them being there, albeit as a wim and an esd and not 2 of the same. Also my keyboard and trackpad doesn't work and since I'm on a laptop I can't plug in any PS/2 devices

    never stop asking questions as long as they are not repetitive and keep sharing your findings for further exploration

    I see from the screenshots that the XP2ESD installer comes with a "DP_Ported_GenericHDA_5231.7z", however, this file seems to be missing from the current 1.6.1 version, with no other folder or archive including any kind of generic HD audio driver.

    Is there any place i can get it? who is the original author of this driver and where can i find more about it?
    I tried using the search feature of this forum but with no luck.

    Why when it does the "Installing to virtualbox" Virtual box is very slow. i tried to install windows xp normally in virtual box and it was rather fast (around 5-15 mins). but when its installing windows xp with xp2esd builder it doesnt even finish. the text mode setup (the first initial part of windows installation) its very slow (around 30 mins to copy all things) then the second part of the installation never does anything. it just gets stuck. the hdd light occasionally but it doesnt do anything i even left it for 1 and a half hours but it never did anything

    XP2ESD Version 1.6.2 is just a hotfix designed to be copied over 1.6.1.

    I think VMware method also needs.
    Because Windows 11 24H2 refuses to start virtual machines of virtualbox with headless mode.
