I am trying to install win XP as a virtual machine on a clean install Win 7pro64bit. I have installed all the microsoft updates. I have tried a "clean boot" as mentioned in other threads. The virtual machine file/update will not successfully install. I have been trying for some time now to install Windows Virtual PC (Windows6.1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu). Initially it looks fine, then on the reboot it gets to 94% on the sytem update and then gives an error message"windows update has failed" and reverts the changes. I have tried the installation multiple times, redownloaded the file, etc. Nothing seems to work. Asusp8Z77-v-Pro mother board and intel I7-3770K processor. I have enabled hardware virtualization in the bios. At a loss any help or thoughts would be appreciated.
