This link will allow you to enable and use Windows
  XP mode.

  Another alternative, if you are a little more
  adventurous, is to create a VHD with the 32 bit
  version of Windows XP and the use the Windows 7 boot
  manager to boot the VHD.  This means that your CFO
  will have to reboot to use R:Base, but she will have
  a native (in spite of the VHD boot)  copy of Windows
  instead of a virtual copy.  XP Mode will not require
  a reboot, but she will be using a virtual copy so
  performance may be an issue.  Also, depending on the
  amount of RAM in the system, XP mode may not run, or
  will run very poorly.  If you use the VHD method,
  you will need an OS license.  XP Mode will not
  require an additional license.
