Hi Michael, Yes and no. You can not use the screen reader on the host operating system to install a guest operating system like XP into a virtual machine. That said, its not impossible to setup a virtual machine on your own.
One way you could do this is if you have a full retail copy of XP you can script the install. A lot of people aren't aware from Windows 95 on the Windows setup can use an unintended install script in order to run an unintended install. If you boot the install cd into the XP command prompt you can pass it the setup command with various switches and the path to the install script and from there on it will install itself. So if you are creating a virtual machine put the script in a shared location, bring up the unintended installer on the cd install, and pass it the setup command with your install options and let it rip. However, as this is rather technical,takes some documentation which I don't really have the time to document here, the best option is still to get someone sighted to create the master virtual machine image which you can easily backup and restore as needed from that point.
