Not too bad:
I understood, an usual XP install did not work, from the hardware. But did not say anything about the troubles. OK.
And, that Linux 64 Bit VM for XP 32 Bit needs in addition some 32 Bit codecs therefor, I would not have expected. This is new to me. So, thank You.
(Linux Mint Mate 21.3, there in VM Knoppix 9.3, in one partition.
The second partition Win10, for perhaps some things.
An other drive, with only 2 partitions - more than 2 partitions on one drive I do not like, because of the order from Win does sort them - XP 32 Bit and XP 64 Bit.
For probably to test other Linux-versions with: in Linux Mint Mate.
Each on one drive would need 4 drives. And a fifth, when trying an other Linux-version ...)
