| VMware 6+ has automation options for Windows disks, just set the virtual machine up to be with XP and it will prompt you with installation options. If you need more specific instruction when setting up virtual workstation, just post here.

| Once you install and go to make a virtual machine, it's pretty intuitive. There are help files you can refer to, and I PMed you to answer your question.

| That's all up to you: how much space are you going to use within the system and what programs do you plan to run?
