    Is the XP mode function in Windows 7 Pro, XP Home or XP Pro?


    Can I choose which version of Windows XP I want to install during the installation of XP Mode?

    Hello sanctuary, and welcome to Sevenforums.

    No, you cannot choose which version gets installed, although I believe it is the 32 bit XP Pro (cannot confirm the version at the moment, but I'm like 75% sure it is Pro). It doesn't do well with graphically intense software, such as games, tv tuners, or graphic editors.

    You will need Windows 7 Pro or higher to install (64 or 32 Bit).

    Windows XP Mode is an XP Pro SP3.
