Windows XP Mode: Providing Flexibility For You and Your Customers
We’re committed to providing a smooth transition as your customers move to the Windows 7
operating system.
Many of them will upgrade from Windows XP and will require the flexibility to run their current
Windows XP applications.
We’re focused on providing you with the right tools to help customers achieve their goals to:
Maximize productivity.
Manage their technology infrastructure and total cost of ownership.
Designed for Small Business
Windows XP Mode is a new feature of Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise. Many
applications designed for Windows XP will run in Windows 7, but some legacy applications may not
be compatible.
Windows XP Mode allows many of these applications to run right from the Windows 7 desktop.
Benefits include:
Ease of use: Time is precious for small-business customers. Windows XP Mode utilizes Windows
Virtual PC to launch Windows XP applications with a single click directly from the Windows 7
desktop.
Business continuity: In addition to enabling customers to run Windows XP applications virtually on a
Windows 7-based PC, Windows XP Mode also supports many Windows XP devices—for instance,
those connected to USB ports.

Cost management: Windows XP Mode extends the life of existing Windows XP applications and
devices, and reduces the learning curve by using many familiar applications and devices.
Windows XP Mode Now Supported on PCs Without Virtualization-Enabled Processors
Microsoft has removed the virtualization-enabled processor requirement for Windows XP Mode on
Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate. Windows XP Mode continues to use hardware virtualization
such as Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) or the AMD-V™ chipset when available but it no
longer requires them.
Microsoft has released an update that enables PCs without hardware virtualization to also take
advantage of Windows XP Mode.
