There are also guides that have ported Windows 95, 98, XP and other x86 system to run on many ARM devices.įrom the guide: Now you can run x86 based operating systems on your ARM device. This setup requires that QEMU be compiled and running with a specific configuration. I have first hand experience with getting Mac OS X Mavericks running on an ARM HDMI stick, primarily aimed at running Android on a TV. That said, it IS entirely possible to run x86 systems on an ARM device if it meets the standard requirements. In fact, it's generally never a good idea to claim something as impossible. Just because it hasn't been done yet (which it has), it's not appropriate to say it's impossible. Then use the VMware Remote Console app (also available in the Mac App Store) to connect to the ESXi server and VM.TL DR Yes it is possible to virtualize Windows XP on an ARM device such as Raspberry Pi.įor anyone saying that this isn't possible needs to re-evaluate what "possible" means. (I'm not sure if the Remote Desktop app on the Mac considers Windows XP to be too old and insecure to talk to, but it's worth a try).Įither one of these solutions may require that firewall settings be tweaked on the Windows 10 or 11 host operating system.Īnother thought is to ditch the laptop idea, get a small Intel NUC with sufficient memory and SSD, and run VMware's free version of ESXi on it. This'll work best if the VM is configured with Bridged networking. You may be able to use the Microsoft Remote Desktop app (free install from the Mac App Store) to connect to the VM. However, VNC may not perform well and might be insecure.Įnable Remote Desktop connectivity within Windows XP Professional running on the VM. That way VNC client software on the Mac can be used to access the remote VM.s.
Enable VNC connectivity to a VM's console through VMware Workstation.
