Windows XP mode fails to setup
Hi everyone,
Having a bit of a problem getting Windows XP mode to install thanks to a stupidly ambiguous error that occurs at the end of installation:
I've researched my core (
Q6600) and it's supported with VT...
Specs:
MOBO: Gigabyte P965-S3
GFX: nVidia 8800GTS 640mb
RAM: 4GB/800Mhz DDR2
CPU: Q6600 2.4Ghz
OS: Windows 7 RC x64
I also have adequate hard disk space for installation...
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a lot.
