Just returning to an old post.
I am aware that VMware supports XP as a guest operating system (hello again mixture), but will I need a valid license key for XP. I have XP on my home built desktop machine, and had it on my old Dell Inspiron 8100 laptop, but they were both OEM licenses.
If I have to purchase a new license key (is that still possible for XP), then I may as well just junk the scanner.
