I have 2 PCs, 1 with a INTEL-Q9550 (YES-VT-x) and another with INTEL-E2160 (NO-VT-x)

I will be using the Q9550 first to create a new VM, install XP and install stuff I'll need. Once this VM is golden, I plan on migrating this VM over to the E2160 machine.

The question is, while creating/preparing this VM on the Q9550, should I disable all the following settings below to make sure the E2160 can start this VM without errors?

Q9550 Default VM Settings
=========================

PROCESSOR
  [X] Enable PAE/NX

ACCELERATION
  [X] Enable VT-x/AMD-V
  [X] Enable Nested Paging
