What does the virtual machine bit have to do with anything? I have also tested these binaries with an actual Windows XP desktop sporting a Pentium 3 (screenshots available earlier in the thread), so I'm quite confident they should work on most, if not all standard-ish XP setups. I just find it easier to launch a VM for a quick test instead of taking an old computer out of the closet.

@Emulgator : Sorry about the confusion - I assumed you meant the commandline binary the whole time, which should work just fine on XP. If you want the use the GUI, you'll have to download a special build for Windows XP available here or here if you don't want to create a github account, but the link is only valid for 24 hours.
