Has anyone ever gotten a minimum XPE system to run
successfully under VMWare? I've tried but it can't seem
to find drivers that work for the disk, CDROM and serial
ports despite having used TAP with the same VM settings
and XP Pro.

XPE and VMWare

Posted: 07-17-2003, 02:04 PM

I managed to get XP/E working really well under Vmware..

I did not need any special drivers. It works on the
Standard drivers that ship with XP/E.

I used TAP.exe on the Virtual Machine first. From there
everything works great.

Yes, it probably does, but I'm not sure how useful it would be unless you
plan to deploy your image under VMware running presumably under XP pro :-)
