Virtual PC - Windows XP mode?

Is it possible to use Windows Virtual PC - XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/ ) when you use the latest version of VMWare Fusion on a Mac Pro with OS X Snow Leopard?  I'm under Microsoft Windows 64-bit Vista Ultimate in my VM.

Thank you

You say that the VPC2007 will run a virtual XP mode machine (i.e., they share a file format), or VPC2007 will run a virtual Windows 7 machine which is itself run XP mode (i.e. nested VMS)? The latter is much more difficult and talks about what jmattson.

In fact both.  On hosts without virtualization assisted by material (e.g. portable infirmity Core2Duos), Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, Ultimate owners the right to run the virtual machine XP Mode under VPC2007 SP1.  Only SP1 supports Win7.

I know that VMware would discourage (as I would), nested virtualization but running as a trial, I ran XP Mode nested to test the activation and the feasibility of it.  I have 2007SP1 VPC to start XP Mode and go to an office with access to the network within a virtual merger machine.  The nested Mode XP is practically unusable, and I would not recommend this path at all, compared to a VM XP merger separate which can integrate with OS X using the unit, etc..

    I installed an application under virtual pc and I use the application and generate files. I can't access the files with the windows Explorer 7 - and windows Explorer cannot find in a search. I know they are there but they are "virtual".

    Here are two ways to get Windows 7 to access files created in Windows XP Mode:

    1. the XP Mode virtual machine automatically assign a drive letter to each of the disks to the Windows 7 computer.  You can store files directly on these discs.
    2. you can share disk of the XP mode virtual machine and access it as a network drive in Windows 7. Boulder computer Maven

  • Successfully installed XP Mode, but is not "Windows XP Mode" in the folder "Windows Virtual PC"...

    Successfully, I installed XP Mode and the VPC and ran the first time very well. I installed a few programs and quit smoking. Now, I have a Windows Virtual PC folder in my Start menu. It has shortcuts to launch the programs that I have already installed and they work fine, but there is no way to start XP Mode in its own window that it was when I ran, so I can not install anything else.

    All the info I've found say to select Start-> all programs-> Windows Virtual PC-> Windows XP Mode. However, in the installation of this entry is not. The only thing there is another folder containing the apps I had installed the first time.

    Please offer suggestions for the restoration of the facility.

    Thank you.

  • 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:

    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.

  • Windows XP mode / Windows virtual PC

    I have to support some programs LV7.1 (and newer versions).  I just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 64-bit edition.  LV7.1 loads and runs, but the drivers disk pours on the 64-bit operating system.  (This was not unexpected...)

    The new PC he has an Intel processor supporting Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode.

    I need to upgrade to W7 Pro, but before I do, I want to get some feelings that it will work.  If older NIDaq, MAX, etc. Install OK in XP mode?  If someone has done this?  Is there another solution which is better?

    Hi John,.

    NOR-traditional DAQ won't work on Windows 7 64-bit at all, even if you install the (very limited) driver beta OR - traditional DAQ 7.5.   I do not work with LabVIEW license much (data acquisition is my spring) but I understand that you can have different versions on different computers.  If this is the case, you must use OR-DAQmx 9.0.2 with LabVIEWs 8.2.1 and 8.5.1 8.6.1.  NOR-DAQmx 9.0.2 is the first version 'officially' supported on Windows 7, both 32 - and 64-bit.  As long as you use a 32-bit version of LabVIEW (which, if you're not using LabVIEW 2009, it will be inherently 32-bit) you binaries will work fine.

    Note: When I say "as long as you use a 32-bit version of LabVIEW' I do not mean a version that does not work on a 64 bit OS.  This section of the knowledge base, LabVIEW 64-bit vs 32-Bit Applications FAQ, explained part of the difference.  The main thing to keep in mind is that because Windows Vista and Windows 7 can emulate 32-bit programs to 64-bit well enough, you can still use a version of LabVIEW which is only 32-bit on a 64-bit computer.

    I don't know the number of tests we did install older versions of LabVIEW as 8.2.1 on Windows 7, but I guess it should work fine.  I would recommend this install it:

    1. LabVIEW 8.2.1
    2. LabVIEW 8.5.1
    3. LabVIEW 8.6.1
    4. Boxes to tools or modules of the foregoing
    5. NOR-DAQmx 9.0.2

    I hope this helps!

  • Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode in Windows 7

    I just bought a new PC Pro WIN 7 with the ability to run WIN XP in a virtual machine.  It told me I have to go on a MS site and follow the instructions to validate that the installation was valid. Then I was told to download the 3 following programs without any explanation as to what they were.  The programs are:

    windowsXPMode_N_en - us.exe

    windowsXPMode_en - us.exe

    GenuineCheck.exe

    So I downloaded them.  GenuineCheck.exe I wanted to save a password in the Clipboard to use in step 2.  I couldn't go to step 2.

    I installed windowsXPMode_en - us.exe.  I can now run a virtual XP in WINDOWS 7 PC.

    I have not (yet?) installed to windowsXPMode_N_en - us.exe.  I don't know if I have to, anyone know?

    Currently, I can open the Virtual PC in XP mode.  I transferred only a set of 32-bit up to now to see if it will work.  To do this, sort of.  Kind of means that the game works, but it is gross or difficult to read data, the colors and the resolution is bad.  On the side of WIN 7, colors and resolution are very good.  What the first step before installing Visual Basic 6.

    In addition, while I have an anti demo virus installed by the supplier of the computer, it doesn't seem to work in Virtual PC.  Is this a matter of concern, or am I protected by WIN 7?

    Thank you

    Hi RussBrad,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    Based on the information, you want to know if you can run Windows XP mode without any problem in the Windows 7 system.

    Windows XP Mode lets you run business software Windows XP older right on your Windows 7 desktop.

    Windows XP Mode comes as a separate download and works only with Windows 7 Professional, full and business.

    Windows XP Mode performance depends on the configuration of the computer.

    Since you are using Windows 7 Ultimate edition, you will be able to install and use Windows XP mode without any problem.

    For more information, see the articles:

  • Windows XP mode virtual machine does not start after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Hello

    After the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro for Windows 10 Pro, my virtual Windows XP machine (which was created from the "XP" mode in Windows 7) no longer starts.

    It shows:

    This system is not allowed to run "Windows XP Mode". Now, the virtual machine will be turned off.

    How can I activate the Windows XP Mode in Windows 10 Pro? I mean, I have not lost my right to run Windows XP Mode, just because I've upgraded to Windows 10, right?

    Microsoft caught only supported XP Mode in Windows 7, it has been since Windows 8.

    You might be able to extract the folder integer vhd it and import it in VMware Workstation as a separate virtual machine. In the end, 'XP Mode' just was running a virtual machine in your Windows 7 after all.
