So I Tried To Install Windows NT 3.1 On VirtualBox With 32 MB Of Ram And 2 GB Of Hard Disk Space But I Got A Error Message That Reads: Setup cannot install on current processor, Cannot proceed to install.

  • Did you try to disable nested paging? I remember getting a similar message on Windows 95 and that seemed to fix it.
  • I found a few pages regarding your problem. Try this.
  • NT 3.1 and 3.5 won't work on processors newer than the original Pentium without modifying some of the setup files, as described in the guide birdy recommended. Also, I've had issues in the past with VMware, something to do with SCSI / IDE interface of the CD drive.

    I think this forum has seen a lot of questions regarding NT 3.x series. I will work on a guide, that perhaps can be pinned for reference.
