I can't boot a modified and patched installation of XP in UEFI mode.


Recommended Posts

Hello to everyone.

I've installed Windows XP 32 and 64 bit as virtual machine with VMware 17 on my Ubuntu 23.10. The goal is to be able to boot them in UEFI mode.

At a certain point of the video,he changes the boot mode from BIOS to UEFI (I can't attach urls). I did the same,but In my case it won't change. The button is greyed out.

I've also converted those xp virtual machines from vmdk to img and I tried to boot them with bhyve (the hypervisor used on FreeBSD),but they didn't boot.

So,I can't check if the vmdk images are able to boot with VMware because I'm not able to enable the UEFI option and I can't check if they don't boot with bhyve because they don't boot with UEFI in VMware.
