    I've used the following files to activate XP Pro SP3 on VirtualBox 6.1

    Then, I ran mgadiag.exe, report of which is attached here. But I can't figure out whether it made genuine oem activation it or not.

    Can someone clarify?

    OEM:SLP 1.0 activation is technically "Genuine", same as OEM manufacturers do it.

    Legally, you will NEVER be Genuine unless you own a license.

    VirtualBox 6.1 doesn't support 3D for Vista, XP and below. Use 6.0 or 5.5. I'm using 5.5.
