Boot once to install, then change boot: disk. | Problem | Solution | | :--- |

Some emulator forums share WindowsXP_SP3.img files sized 1–2 GB compressed.
Common sources (use at own risk, check your local laws): Boot once to install, then change boot: disk

Recommended approach:

Filename: winxp_sp3_limbo.img (Compressed: 450MB, Extracted: 1.2GB) Password: None (or limbo) Some emulator forums share WindowsXP_SP3

If you have your own CD, you can create an ISO with tools like dd (Linux) or ImgBurn (Windows).
Otherwise, Internet Archive hosts many XP ISOs as "archival/educational" – search for Windows XP Professional SP3 (x86).
