• 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.

• Windows XP mode and Windows Virtual PC

  My old system crashed (looked like 15 years in any case lol) and a low-cost system now has the SATA card and readers, but my old HD is ok. My new system is installed with Windows 7 Ultimate, but my old HD has WinXP with all my music, games and other software. I'll get the IDE to SATA Adapter block, but in any case, here's my question... I want to reuse my old IDE hd with all my files from WinXP on it and I did a reading in this Windows XP Mode and Windows Virtual PC and I would like to know if someone is using this download mode of Windows XP to Windows 7 and what questions have known and if it is worth, but for me it would be worth cause I had some problems with my (x 86) software from the re - install it on my Windows more recent system 7 and Win7 is a big update for me and my new system only cost me about the same price it would just go out and buy Windows 7 Ultimate lol.  The experiences and knowledge of Windows XP mode on Windows 7 would be helpful thanks in advance...

  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:

  Hope the information is useful.

  If you need further assistance, please answer and we will be happy to help you.

• I want to install the Commander of the force star wars on my new PC, but says it is not compatible with windows 64-bit. I try the windows XP mode and it tells me that I need to connect a hardware device 3D

  I want to install the Commander of the force star wars on my new PC, but says it is not compatible with windows 64-bit. I have try on windows XP mode and it tells me that I need to connect a hardware 3D device. I really love the game and I want to use it again.

  Any old copy of Windows XP that could be installed in the host system? If you do not, it should be available at a modest price of an online seller. Perhaps (I'm not too), even an old Windows 98 TO work. The game (using a 3D engine) will not work under pure DOS, so you need a Windows environment so that it can work. Just FYI: If you get this old classic to run, new issues may arise. Known are the "mss32.dll" runtime error (you may need to replace this file with the newer version of SW:KOTOR 1) and the issue of video cutscenes (the games uses an obsolete video codec, Smacker - either you find an old *.) DLLS for it or have you convert movies in a modern format).

  In conclusion: get old games to run on software/hardware modern (it is not only a problem of BONE) is one of the most fascinating and rewarding challenges to a real fan. But do not expect it will not be easy "out of the box" (or simply insert a CD).

• What is the difference between Windows XP Mode and Windows XP Mode "N".

  It's confusing. Why are there two downloads of Windows XP Mode? And what is the difference between XP normal Mode and XP Mode "N"?

  Thank you for your response.

  The "n" of Windows versions contain no Windows Media Player. It is the result of an agreement with the European Commission to settle the dispute of the competition.

• Windows 7 Starter from Windows XP Mode and no connection to the Service of Event Notification

  Today, for the first time when I started Windows 7 Starter, it took some time to load and I was on the 'Please wait' and 'Welcome' screen for far longer than normal. It starts with Windows XP Mode on and an error message:

  Not entirely. The problem has 2 parts:

  (1) WU - is not a wise decision to restart the computer to unconditionally and inconfigurably.
  (As much as I KNOW Vista Home Premium doesn't have a GPedit to remove autoreboots)

  (2) WD - this is not a wise decision to update the database of WD by WU.

  The best depends on how the definition of the best.

  I'm no expert on this subject. This is why I don't have suggestions or responses. You have heard so far of answers must be old news to you.
  It is also why I asked you to transfer to the Windows Update section where experts can offer their opinions than your own.

• I would like a more efficient sorting for organizing files, a similar to the options available via EXCEL. I want to sort the files from Windows 7 Desktop AND type update...

  I would like to apply a more efficient to organize the display of files, a similar to the options available via EXCEL.  I want to sort the files of desktop Windows 7 by type AND update... looks like it would be a logical way to view the files.  Currently, I can do one or the other.  Sort by modified date provides a hodgepodge of file types, sort by type will not most recently changed... organize a hodgepodge of dates.  You wonder why I felt it necessary to ask this... seems to be a simple and logical option which would already be available.  Is it?  If so, how can we do this?

  I don't know where you see all sort in excel. The file > open in excel procedure uses this same kind as provided by the Explorer (its Explorer discovers Documents)

  The view in excel is obviously filtered to Excel docs.

  You probably need to rethink your documents folders stratergy

• Screen of Microsoft Update crashes Windows XP mode

  I have Windows Virtual PC in Windows 7 Pro, and I test it with Windows XP Mode before I use it for Ubuntu Linux.

  In the test, I went through the normal routine with Windows XP Mode, installation of updates; but after the first activation of Windows Update, after which, I installed Microsoft Update, the update screen freezes for 9 to 10 minutes, the message «Check if your computer has the latest version of Windows Update software for use with the site...» " until he goes to the next screen, 'Welcome to Microsoft Update'.  I also noticed that, even though the download process seems normal, the installation process is exceptionally more time that I expect anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes for each of the bigger files.

  Is it a file in XP Mode which could trample the day opening screen, or is it one of my programs in Win7 that could be the cause (though I doubt it)?  I miss an ActiveX program or any program, by the way?  Or do I have too many?  Or should I simply rub the file in XP Mode, I installed and install a new one in its place, since I'm in the early stages of Windows Update?

  Someone directed me to KB2879017 Cumulative Update for Windows XP.  Once installed, it updates automatic galvanized WinXP.  Once I added KB898461, Internet Explorer 8, KB905474 and KB892130, I was able to get more updates via Windows/Microsoft Update.  The update process wouldn't properly unless I installed these files in the order that I posted here.  I had to load KB2879017 from a USB flash drive.  The rest came through automatic updates.

• 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

  This is not necessary:

  windowsXPMode_N_en - us.exe

  This is for clients running Windows 7 Pro N

  Here is everything you need:

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

  Restart the system, and then install:

  2 WindowsXPMode_en-we
