We set the memory to 512 MB, but it can technically run on as low as 96 MB of RAM or as high as 4 GB of RAM. Since XP is a 32-bit OS it can't recognize more than 4 GB, though there is a 64-bit version which removes this limitation. (There is a PAE patch that also removes this limitation, but programs can't use more than 4 GB regardless.)
If you use Integral Edition, you can get better performance by switching <code>-M pc</code> with <code>-M pc-q35-2.6</code>.
From here, the installation is pretty straightforward. Agree to the license, (quick) format the disk, and wait for it to install. The OS should install pretty quick on newer systems.
# Download the 32-bit Setup and run it
# You will get a few options in the setup. All of them are optional but I recommend installing the Noto Emoji font and creating shortcuts for Supermium. Hit OK
# If all went well,

===Activation===
Have a copy of XP SP2 or SP3 that isn't activated? Here's how to fix that:
# Download the [https://computernewb.com/software/windows_activation/%5BWINXP%5D%20XP%20Phone%20Keygen.exe XP telephone keygen]
# Click Start -> Activate Windows
# Check "Yes, I want to telephone a customer service representative to activate Windows" and click Next
# Open the keygen
# Click the "Get from the system" button, if that doesn't work, type the installation ID manually into the program (you'll see it in step 3, its a long string of numbers)
# Type the numbers you get in the the keygen's "Confirmation ID" into their respective columns in the activation program
# Click "Next"
# Windows should be activated!
