    WIN 7 Pro OEM - Where is XP mode


    Hey peeps,

    I installed WIN 7 Pro OEM over the weekend for my mums new PC i built her.

    I wanted to install XP mode for her but i could not find it on the disk or in optional features. This then begged the question, does XP mode only come with Retail versions and not OEM.

    Thanks

    You need to download XP Mode separately; it does not come with the OS.

    Download Windows XP Mode
