Before starting, go to your phone settings->secuirity-> and locate Unknown sources and uncheck it! Just click connect to access the program. There will come up various results, but you have to choose the one called 'com.alwaysonpc.android.vnc.25.apk' (For you iOS users, if you scroll down there is the program available in iphone format but in different titles.) Install it, register and you are done. Do you have to download runescape now.

Yes, it is possible.
I do not think that you can emulate the hardware of your old motherboard using Vmware. But, you do it in several other ways:
Simplest: Check the P4's BIOS and set it to boot from CDROM. I really think that it has this option, though you might need to move the CDROM around. (e.g. my motherboard only boots if I put the CDROM on two specific ports, and fails on all 6 others).
Put the disk as only disk in another system and install. (Harder with a laptop)
Install into vmware, then convert the image to a disk.
Backup the laptop. Install XP onto the laptop. Then copy that XP install to the P4's disk (Using cloning software such as Ghost, Acronis, CloneZilla, FOG, ..)
Options 2, 3 and 4 mean that the hardware will change. This usually as two results:
XP wants to be reactivated.
It might not boot at all. If you run into this problem remove all drivers before moving the disk via sysprep and generalize.

How To Install Ide Controller Driver For Cd Players
Most systems that wouldn't boot from a CD/DVD were from the mid 90's and earlier. Pentium 4 sounds like something a bit later than that. Are you sure your BIOS settings are correct, and your CD/DVD is properly connected?
