How to run Windows XP Home Edition in Hyper-v?

Windows XP Home Edition installs fine on Hyper-V on Windows Server 2008R2, with a screen resolution of 800x600. If the resolution is changed, then the virtual machine starts to flicker and after that, the window with the virtual machine becomes all in stripes. Tried several times to reinstall and different distributions.
There are no such problems on the Professional Edition. But you need exactly Home.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Here's what the screen looks like:

It is not possible to run on others, since there are no licenses for them, and the server in the enterprise

In that case, VirtualBox should suit you, it's free software.
In general, it is strange to work in a VM from the console. By the way, VirtualBox has screen integration, it will be much more convenient.

It is necessary under Hyper-v? Or any virtualka with XP?
Then - in 2008 the server normally works VMWare Server 2, and under it - already XP,

Of course I counted on using Hyper-V. But now I'm redoing everything on Virtual Box. The Wiki says that Hyper-v only supports XP Professional. Thanks to all!
