I had the same issue on my windows 8. Thankfully im running windows 8 Pro so it comes with Hyper-V. Small steps and i had Window XP running and was back in business.

Unfortunately i was unable to fix the issues i had which was a totally black screen. Windows XP compat used to fix that in Windows 7 but aparently not in Windows 8.

If your running the Windows 8 home edition then your best guess would be to get some other virtualization tool live sun virtual box or soemthing else.

ive never really have used a virtual thingy majig. Where do I go to get one and how do I set It up?

You need to check your widnows version first.
Check it you by pressing Windows+F and search for system. You can read your windows edition from the top of it.


if your running windows 8 Pro then i suggest you go with Hyper-V and windows XP. you can find a good guide here

--Theres probably a product key on your old machine or something.
--If the old product key is for windows 7 then install that in the virtual machine instead.
