Importing Legacy Windows XP or Windows 2003 from Virtualbox to Proxmox Rumi, December 28, 2023 Problem Statement: I have an old Windows 2003 32 bit server running in Virtualbox. Since Virtualbox is under decommissioned, it is intended to be migrated to Proxmox VE Before Migration or export of VM from Virtualbox, following .reg file is required to be installed on Windows 2003 server to avoid IDE incompatibility and avoid BSOD or Blue Scree of Death Download file: https://pve.proxmox.com/mediawiki/images/f/f5/Mergeide.zip Once the registry file is imported, you can shut down the virtual machine and start exporting. You can follow my earlier post of https://tweenpath.net/convert-virtualbox-vm-proxmox-ve/ and continue. This worked on Windows 2003 the same will work for Windows XP VM.
