[SOLVED] install virtio scsi controller on "xp sp3"

[pierre-b]

Hello,


I would like to migrate a IDE drive of a winxp pro sp3 to virtio.
I followed the following tutorial https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_XP_Guest_Notes (and others which approaches) but during the driver installation, the installation freezes
I tested with the latest version of virtio-win.iso (1.102 / 1.110) and the 1.49


What I did (several times)
- Create a new disk (virtio / qcow2)
- Attach the CD-virtio win.iso
- Start the vm
- After The "found new hardware wizard" I selects the folder "VioStor \ XP \ x86"
- Then the driver installation is frozen (see image)

Do you have tracks
Thank you
proxmox Server 3.4

Hello,
The method of proxmox wiki is it still relevant? cf https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Windows_XP_Guest_Notes
Or it is useless to migrate IDE disks to virtio with winxp?
Thank you for the details.

Strange, should work (long time I don't do with XP, try 1.48 please since I've notes that worked for me).
Try to copy the drivers locally, maybe there is some issue with "cd-rom" access?

Sorry for the response time
I just re-test today. It works with version 0.1.112
Thank you mmenaz
