Shaunno Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 1. Have you got the professional, ultimate or enterprise version of win7. 2. If you have then have you downloaded the add-on which is here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx There is more information on how to set up xp virtual mode here: http://lifehacker.com/5245396/set-up-and-use-xp-mode-in-windows-7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryaan1205 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 no i have home professional , i downloaded it last night, but it seem to run, created a virtual machine, it worked, but it doesnt let me run the file as when i try to run the file in XP mode , then drop down menu that picks what operating system i am using is blocked im guessing this is because i dont have the correct OS ?
