hi guys im new to this forum, I had windows 7 7210 and windows xp mode worked perfectly for me, now i have got the final build 7600 from msdnaa, and i am not able to use windows xp mode on my laptop. I didnt change any settings, and i do have hardware virtualization on. what could be the problem/?
Have you downloaded the latest issue of XP mode and the visualization update - they have both gone to RC recently
What is meant by"unable" to run windowsxp mode, what error message if any do you receive?
do you have the proper drivers required? xp mode needs a lot of requirements to run it
i just followed microsoft's instructions. My cpu and motherboard support the virutalization technology. i have an msi gx600 notebook
Hi, i was searching this forum to find any info on Windows XP mode. I am having the exact same problem i just got a copy of Windows 7 x64 pro from MSDNAA.
I have downloaded and installed the Windows XP mode RC from the microsoft website but i am not getting any executable file in the start menu or the program files menu. Like Dwardu my computer is quite capable of running XP mode, if anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
I figured out what my problem was perhaps this is the same problem you are having dwardu. I didn't realize that i needed to install the windows virtualization program to make the windows xp mode work. It seems that windows xp will not run as a standalone program.
If you havent installed the windows virtualization software try that and it should fix your problem.
Also thanks to pparks1 for pointing me in the right direction to solve my problem.
Yes, you must first install Microsoft Virtual Pc
