I've solved the problem following this guide https://www.running-system.com/error-loading-operating-system/

@51m0n397 I followed this guide as well but I'm only getting a blank screen with a blinking DOS cursor upon running the VM in Virtualbox.

Execute this after importing the OVA File:

vbox-img geometry --filename Windows_XP_Professional-disk1.vdi --format VDI --cylinders 5874 --heads 255 --sectors 56

On Windows, you'll need to add vbox-img to windows path environment system. For me the .exe was at C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox.

Hi, I am having a problem in assigning an IP address to this XP machine. It is not showing up LAN settings to configure IP address. It is asking for the installation disk to identify/find the hardware connectivity. Did anyone face this issue? please update. Thanks
