Problem installing Windows XP Mode in 7 Winjdows

I have a problem installing Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 Pro 64 running on a Dell Latitude E6510 laptop with an i5 processor and 8 GB of ram.  This machine supports hardware virtualization, and it is enabled in the BIOS.

Before downloading software in XP Mode, the MS download required Windows validation Web site.  Downloaded and reported validation validation and a successful installation.  Then I downloaded Windows XP Mode (WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe, 481 052 KB) installation package and the package of Windows Virtual PC (Windows6 1 - KB958559 - x 64 - RefreshPkg.msu, 16 692-Ko).  Then, I installed Windows XP Mode; the installation ran without any problems apparent and reported success.
According to the docs of download site, the next step is to: "... click on the Windows 7 start button , and then select all programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin the installation."
My problem is Windows Virtual PC does not appear anywhere in the selection of all programs list - believe me, I looked.  There is, however, a new directory called
c:\ProgramFiles\Windows XP Mode\
but it contains no exe file.  It contains a file of 1.2 GB called Windows XP Mode base.vhd - but it is not clear what to do with it.  There is also a tutorial subdirectory.
I tried to reinstall Windows XP Mode (without uninstalling first) but I just get a warning message that the program is already installed.  Windows XP Mode appears on the list "Uninstall or change a program" in the module programs and features in Control Panel.
I tried running (Windows6. 1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu(Windows6.1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu, goal that throws error 0x8007000d, "The data is invalid."
If at this point, my question is simple, "what to try next?
Thanks in advance.

The right way to install Windows XP Mode, you must first install Windows Virtual PC, and then install Windows XP Mode.

You must install both files:

1 Windows6. 1 - KB958559 - x 64 or x 86 architecture that you run

Restart the system, and then install:

2 WindowsXPMode_en-we

------------

Uninstall Windows XP Mode:

Click Start, type: programs and features

Press enter on your keyboard

Scroll down

Select Windows XP Mode

Click Change/uninstall in the command bar

Uninstall Windows XP Mode

-----------------

Restart your computer

Proceed with the installation of Windows XP Mode in the right order.

--------------

If it does not always show upward:

Click Start, type: enable or disable windows features

Scroll down

Make sure that Windows Virtual PC is checked

Click OK

Reboot if prompted

    So almost six months before my laptop apart to windows update. After that followed problems with the update of Skype and other programs. Then it does not install games and different programs. After canceling the update or install, he know that there is a problem with Windows Installer. I searched the internet to find out how can I solve this problem, tried EVERYTHING, but nothing works.

    So I decided to reinstall windows. I have Windows Home premium 64, but when I have donwloaded from different versions of the windows (from version torrent and official) it says that the type of the operating system installed on computer mobile im - one deferred tries to install. Not knowing what to do.

    Can anyone give advice?
    Thank you.

    > Do not know what to do.
    According to the specifications of the laptop it came with WIN7 64 BITS HOME PREMIUM so the best thing you can do is to install the original recovery image that you got with your laptop and everything should be ok.

    Can you do this?

  • Problem installing Windows XP on the Satellite A200-1VF

    I'm trying to install Windows XP with SP2.
    I created a new installation of Window XP with nlite disc and included the Storage Manager to get access to the hard drive.

    I started with this new record of installations and allows to manage my hard drive.
    Then it is formatted and files have been copied to the hard drive. After the 1 st reboot. takes place.

    Windows XP logo appears logo disappears after a few seconds and it's time that the installation of 1 st screen.
    But instead, it appears a box with a red X and an error message "for the given process is not enough quotas for virtual storage or the pagefile" 2 seconds later, the system will reboot and restart the installation and gets the same message and so on.

    The system is already flashed with the BIOS V5.30 for XP.
    To continue installing XP any help is appreciated.

    Thanks Klaus

    Hello

    just a quick question: is the recovery for Vista work? I mean, it sounds like a hardware problem, but usually if the machine worked well before, it must be another problem. The image that was created with nLite is maybe defective...

    Would appreciate comments on your part.

  • Portege M200 - problem installing Windows Xp - BSOD

    I recently got 2 computers Portege M200 laptops, but previous users had wiped the hard drive.
    So now im trying to install windows Xp via cd-rom drives externel accompanying.
    But when its load to the top of the windows Xp cd it gives me a BSOD somewhere near the end of loading the CD (it always stops on 'Setup starts windows').

    Now, I thought that this could be a hard drive problem, so I have a drive hard "nine", but this still does not work (this problem exists on two laptops).

    Now im wondering if theres some sort of special installation process or something of the sort for the M200?

    I hope someone can help me with my problem.
    Thank you... DG

    What version of Windows XP you are trying to install? Windows XP Professional or Tablet edition? You have the available recovery? If Yes, then you should use it :)

  • Satellite A200-1YO - problems installing Windows XP Home edition

    Hi guys,.

    First of all I'm new here so Hello to everyone here and I hope you can help me with my problems of software.

    I recently bought a laptop model Toshiba Satellite A200-1YO provided with windows vista (which must be frank, pants and IMO too demanding for the machine) and I have a problem with vista, because some of its features do not seem to work, for example, I'm having a lot of trouble getting some of the webpages to open now, they simply hang out.

    now, I didn't install windows xp but I don't have an external floppy drive. This is not a problem but because I can use Nlite to integrate the drivers in a new ISO of Windows XP.

    The problem is that I have 4 sets of drivers: ICH7M_32bit, ICH7M_64bit, ICH8M_32bit and ICH8M_64bit. As I install Windows XP 32-bit while I'm more or less some that I have not need 64-bit drivers but when I install Windows XP by using the modified version of windows xp slipstreamed, what I get at startup is a BSD error telling me that something has crashed on my hard drive , however I can't say which crashed as the screen disappears after 15 seconds if that so I guess there is something wrong with the drivers I use (though I must admit that I'm not sure the drivers 32-bit to use)

    advice and assistance regarding being able to install windows xp would be welcome, as I said above, however, I can only use Nlite since I do not have a usb floppy drive.

    Satellite A200-1YO has a chip with the ICH8M southbridge Intel GM965.

    So you need the driver for SATA ICH8M_32bit.

  • Problem of Windows 7 mode and Virtual PC XP

    A few months ago, I bought a laptop. It was the vista operating system. I was told I could easily upgrade to Windows 7 Professional and activate the XP mode, so that I can run some of my business software that can only run in XP mode. They gave me a free upgrade to Windows 7 Home premium with the purchase of my new laptop computer.

    Yesterday, my upgrade from Windows 7 Home premium arrived. I installed and then bought the online upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. After professional installation, I tried to activate Windows XP mode and I discovered that my Intel Core 2 Duo microprocessor does not support virtualization technology to run windows XP mode 7.

    The place I bought the laptop has agreed to take my laptop and give me a refund. My question is how can I make sure that I don't have to pay for him any time upgrade to the professional version when I get my new computer with the right type of microprocessor?

    Being understood that the question and your post has nothing to with Windows Update features (compared to the upgrade of Windows), see Windows XP Mode requirements article here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7

    If return you the computer to Vista & then go to Win7 Home Premium, you should be able to use the Win7 Pro Upgrade Anytime to another eligible computer.
