Converting Microsoft physical machine with OEM licensing

$

Hi All,

 

I guess this is a well worn path for all the P2V newbies like myself. I converted an old XP box with an OEM license and get stuck at the prompt "This copy of Windows must be activated with Microsoft before you can log on. Do you want to activate Windows now?". Is there a way to convert this OEM license to run on the virtual machine or is this a dead end? I do have an XP installation disk with valid serial numbers if that is of any help.

 

Thanks to everyone who replies,

Ray
