Question

Is it possible to run Windows XP on Windows 8.1 tablet?

Mar 3, 2018 7:00PM PST

I wonder if it's possible to install Windows XP as a secondary operation system on SD card in the Windows 8.1 x64 tablet. I checked the tablet drivers and it seems that all off these are available for Windows XP. Though I tried to make bootable USB drive with Windows XP (both x64 and x86 versions) and the image wasn't even detected by my tablet. Is there a chance to install Windows XP by any way?
