"Combining" the adapters creates a network bridge, allowing the virtual machine to connect to a network even though it doesn't have direct access to the router (or alternative switch). Browse to the folder we extracted our files to, select VirtualXP, then Open. Then, hit the folder with the green arrow.

Under Hard disk, select Use an existing virtual hard disk file. Finally, you need to assign the virtual hard disk we extracted from the Windows XP Mode executable earlier.I would advise assigning a minimum of 512 MB (but you won't need more than 2048 MB). Luckily, Windows XP is old and doesn't require buckets of RAM to run. Memory is a shared resource, meaning both the host (your PC) and the guest (the virtual machine) use it concurrently.
