... but wmware workstation dont demand me the second disk ...

It's actually the guest operating system, which has to request another installation resource.

Did you start the installation from the ISO image directly, i.e. using the option to install the OS later, or did you try to use the Easy Install Wizard?

I never installed this OS edition, but I think the way to do use the install OS later option.

ok, now working ! thanks !! but seems that I dont have a internet connection... internet exploer not working... what settings I have to put in vm settings ? thx

There can be several reasons for this:

• no driver installed for the VM's virtual network adapter
• incorrect network type selected in the VM's settings (e.g. Host-Only)

Does the network adapter show up in the guest OS, and does it have a valid IP address?

Windows XP is an old OS, and security things changed quite a bit since it went out of support.

The message you receive could be related to unsupported encryption ciphers, unknown root certificates, etc.

That's not unexpected, and it's actually up to you to decide whether you want to take the risk to go online without sufficient protection.
