XP and 7 working together: What I would like to know is if you can have both Win XP and Win 7 installed via dual boot capability?

Got a bad news for you sir. You can run dual OS in one computer but you have to have your window xp and window 7 disc. You first need to install window xp and in the partition section, make it half of you hdd(non partition part not included). Then run window 7 and partition the remaining space ledt on your hdd. You can you a virual machine to run XP stuff but virual machine is VERY low and it depends on if you CPU, RAM and HDD can handle it or not

Windows XP, However there is a "work-a-round" if you have windows 7 32 bit. It will not work will windows 7 64 bit.

I don't think so. its seems you are set up with a dual operating systems you have the choise of booting to windows 7 or linux mint but you vcan not run both operating system at the same time.

I recently received a notice from Microsoft that Windows XP support will end. XP is compatible but will no longer be supported.

Worked great on XP. I had limited success with Windows 7. When I had one (about 2 years ago) there was a driver available for W7, you'd have to check if it's still available.

It will work with both XP and Win7 PRO. It has to be PRO, because it has an emulator for XP. Win7 Home and other lesser versions don't have the XP emulator. Look it up.

Good news, this now works with Windows 7. see here The procedure involves downloading / installing Windows XP Mode & Windows Virtual PC from MS site:http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspxand following the on-screen instructions on installing the Win XP device in Win 7 environment, and the SiPix Owner's Manual.

No problems, dualbooting win7 and linux mint (it's a ubuntu based os)both 64bit, just make sure you're using mbr, and not gpt.

I only have XP but as I interpret their specs, XP is mentioned only as a minimum requirement and to assure people with old systems like mine that it will still work. Surely it will work with the newer ones.

Yeah, like anybody would want to mess around with Vista. LOL Have fun with your XP (and yeah, like you said, it does come on one disk).

not exactly the answer to your question but i was able to get windows 7 installed with no issues.

Kade C. Your answer is probably the worst answer to a question I have ever seen. This is because no, they do not offer a Windows XP option to come with this computer. However, if you purchase the install disk for Windows XP, and clear the hard drives, yes, you could easily boot it with Windows XP instead of Windows 7. But, unless there is a VERY specific reason you want XP, please get Windows 7 instead. It's much more smooth and you will be far more pleased. Keep in mind, this is a "gaming" PC, so smooth is your best friend. :)

Yes. There are legacy drivers available through the AMD website that will allow it to work with XP. I originally had it installed on an XP machine before I upgraded it to Windows 7.

Hi Really depends on the age of your machine. This version is for system builders, meaning you'd have to wipe windows xp and install win7 fresh. This won't upgrade an existing windows installation. If your machine is older than 4 years, I'd suggest a new machine. The install took 15gb of my hard disk

Have used it with Windows XP no problem (since upgraded to Windows 7). Agree with Jaysen Huff.. do a clean install of your XP disks - remember, these hubs have been around since BEFORE Windows XP.

Yes. I am sharing a printer with two separate computers, one running Win7 and one running XP.
