You need ABOVE Win7 Home Premium to apply... But even then, I think you are locked out. XP-Mode is embedded. I doubt MS lets it be used in the way you want. Rick Glazier From: Gary Interesting...does that mean that if I wanted to download the free XP with the P7450, I could not? And use

Gotcha, thanks Tim. I have to say, I've been really impressed with VirtualBox! My usage has been minimal (played through Myst and Riven in a Win98 virtualbox!) but it's worked very well. I also like Parallels Desktop for Mac, but am getting tired of the upgrade train! Had to upgrade to version
