August 4th, 2016
i m trying to install microxp v0.82 in vmware workstation 9 but giving errors in the final stage of installation. i know it works in virtual box and that it is easy install which is causing issues in vmware.
this is the error encountered �A problem is preventing Windows from accurately checking the license for this computer. Error Code: 0�80070002� anyone knows how i can install this?
thanks

Moved to correct section
I forget the exact steps but you want to do a custom install so that it doesn’t ask for the license key beforehand and create the virtual disk without installing the operating system. After you create just the virtual disk, then you can edit your properties and add the installation ISO. That will bypass vmware asking to enter the license key automatically.
ok will be trying it right now
Ok I successfully installed Microxp 0.82 in Vmware Workstation 9. Here is my tutorial that might be useful for future use.
1.Burn Microxp to a cd.
2.Create a new virtual machine
Select � Custom[advanced]�
3. select �I will install the operating system later�
4.now select �other� for guest operating system and
Select �other � for version
Steps 1 to 4 are most important and should be like this.
Now you can continue with the setup wizard and complete other parameters for the installation.
You can choose your own options according to your requirements.
After completing the installation wizard, you can now power on your virtual machine.
Now click on � VM� tab in vmware workstation
Click on � power �
Click on �power to bios�
Now look for the option to boot from �cdrom drive� and select this and saved in bios/cmos.
Insert your Microxp cd into dvdrom drive
Restart your vm and the installation will start.
After installing microxp,you can edit the settings by selecting windowsxp under �select guest operating system� and then you can install �vmware tools� in microxp.
Hope that helps
