You can probably set up a virtual P.C on a modern P.C , but I could never figure out how so just keep an X.P machine running for my old cameras and film scanners ...
No expert here but I had no problem whatsoever to set up a virtual XP machine based on Oracle's VM VirtualBox - this is as long as you have the original XP installation (SP3) at hand. For setting up the virtual hardware components all it needs is to keep in mind what were common RAM needs at XP times at the same time as virtual HD size - of course keeping an eye on what physical resources your host system relies on especially for avaliable RAM.
The most time consuming part is that once set up the virtual system is the XP installation itself - same as back in time - and the SW one wants to run under the XP system.
My virtual XP system proved to be faster by quite some difference than my old "original" XP notebook.
I might have another go at it again sometime .
