Right, I believe that Microsoft XP Mode needs to reboot the vm when you switch mode, which is why it takes almost 1 min

That suggests it's already preloaded into memory instead of waiting for it to load up when started.

I'm going to give VMLite a try as a replacement to Microsoft XP Mode. I'm currently downloading VMLiteWorkstation.

Do I need to pay for VMLite or MyOldPCs? Do I HAVE to request MyOldPCs trial version to convert my current setup or can I do it through VMLite?

Just trying VMPlayer - fast, fairly easy to convert XPmode and looks to allow 3D acceleration. Impresive!
It has put an 'Unidentified network' flag on my internet access, but internet access works fine.

So VMPlayer can convert my Windows XP virtual hard drive without any additional software?

No, VMLite Workstation is the only software you need. After download and install, it will auto launch, and you follow the steps. After about 10 mins, you will have XP Mode vm running.

VMLite Workstation finds the XPM if already installed on your pc. If not, it will auto download from Microsoft website.

I don't think anyone else can provide such simple way of doing XP Mode.

MyOldPCs is only used for converting your old PCs to a vm, it is not needed at all for running XP Mode.
