    Win XP compatibility


    I have no choice but to try and load a program onto my Windows 7 machine that only has WinXP compatibility (well not 64-bit Windows 7 anyway)
    It is Samsung PC Studio for what that is worth.

    So my plan is to load it in XP compatible mode .
    The thing is there sem to be 2 parts to the program .1 is the program as such and the 2nd part is the usb drivers.
    I understand the procedure is to find the application file ,go to the compatibility tab and select WinXP.

    So my question is how do I know which are the right applications to change in this way?
    When I go into the folders there are quite a lot different ones .
    Is it really as painstaking as it seems ?
    I don't think when I just load the CD I am given an option to load in XP mode and when I click on the CD itself there doesn't seem to be an option to change all of the contained applications to XP compatible.
    Again I think I may be able to run the whole Win 7 operating system as WinXP but this seems like overkill
