Did you know that an old version of QEMU is able to run under DR DOS and FreeDOS using HX DOS Extender? You definitely should try to do a reverse virtualization on DOS.
Hey Michael, I got the Windows 8 installer to start because XP was on the native machine! It went into the installer just fine and now I’m entering the product key.
The reason why Windows 10 is stuck at logo on boot: *Old VirtualBox versions set the paravirtualization mode to Legacy, which Windows 10 doesn't support* _and it's unchangable unless you update the VBox Version to 4.3 or newer_
I succesfully ran Windows 10 on XP using a combination of VMWare Workstation (Modified EXi Profile for hardware virtualization passtrough) and Virtualbox 5.2 (In my case a modified one i had laying around but the original should work fine).
The next best thing that I think you could try is maybe QEMU? I'm not sure if there is a version of QEMU that supports Windows XP but its probably a good place to start
All the syptoms and error messages are related to the processor not supporting the NX feature. I assume that the old virtualization software you are trying to run Windows 8/10 on just does not have support for NX within the VM, as it was not needed for the older OSes...
Those old versions of VB and VMWare Player probably don't support PAE, or SSE2, which is required to run Windows 8 or later. VPC 2007 definitely won't work. I believe VB 5 is the final version to support Windows XP. Try VirtualBox 5 and see if that works.
I like how back in the day windows xp had a seperate version for x64 with its own product keys and shit, so you couldnt use a product key for windows xp home x86 on windows xp home x64, its even specified that its an x64 instillation when you start the computer

The main issue is that virtualization is not enabled
I tried Win10 on WinXP (XP as host) and found out that you can install Win10, but you will need a LOT of patience since you can only assign 1.5GB of RAM to the VM since XP is a 32bits OS and can only see 2.9GB of RAM since MS disabled PAE on XP. I also tried with xp 64bits but virtualbox can't install. Don't have 2k3 server ATM, but I assume that you will be able to install on the 32bits release more easily since PAE is enabled on the server editions of Windows.
I have windows 10 running on windows 7 in virtualbox 4.3.12 This version of Vbox works on XP. I recommend to use that one on XP with real hardware. I have an XP comp, but it's only got 1.5GB of RAM, so won't work. I still use this old version on Win 7 because they added this stupid "hardening" after that and it won't run on an OS with patched files (not taking about cracked activation - it's patched DLLs).

The emulated processor of the XP VM is missing the required x86 instruction set. Windows 8.0 is the latest version that I believe will run on XP era processors.

The older vm software might be missing the hardware NX bit that the installer checks for. I know of a Windows 8 workaround but I don't know if anybody ever came up with a Windows 10 workaround.
OOOh the only reason its not booting because you did NOT give it amd vt-x or intel vt support in the vm which you could do in vmware which is the only why windows 10 could not boot cause it was trying to use sse2, pae, and NX instructions that the vm did not have due to no virtualization support available in it.
Get a high end late 2000's PC. Like an AMD Athlon 64x2 5000+ CPU, with 3 GB of DDR2. Will destroy Windows XP, it will run so well. If you have a "throw away" SSD, you can put XP on that for the extra speed.

I did this many years ago on my old xp machine thinking it would give me better fps in games lol
Ah yes, I did that too as if *ram and graphics cards didn't exist*
Windows 8 and 10 can't work because of PAE, a feature required by newer windows and the older vm software doesn't emulate it.
If you wanna do this try windows 10 lite I have it on my 14 gb laptop so take my word it will work good luck 😉
I would have install Windows 7 on VM Ware and the installed Windows 10 as an update. He would have needed an activation code for 7 though.
