Will the Windows 7 "XP Mode" work with the Intel Atom processor? Would like to experiment without wasting a download  Edit - Found out it does,t thought I'd post this link tho as it has some pretty interesting stuff on it: Intel® Atom? Processor N270 (512K Cache, 1.60 GHz, 533 MHz FSB) with SPEC Code(s) SLB73 |

No, it won't. The Atom N270 does not support the "VT" feature that MS Virtual PC requires. Mini 9|2GB RAM|64GB RunCore|Intel 5300|Windows 8 |

Probably. Also, the older Virtual PC 2007 will run if you can find it. Also, Sun's xVM VirtualBox should run. Mini 9|2GB RAM|64GB RunCore|Intel 5300|Windows 8 |

VirtualBox does indeed run. I have it installed under Windows 7. |

has anyone tried this on a 1010 with the z530 processor?, it runs pretty good on my big HP laptop, but that has a 3.4ghz Pentium 4 processor and 2gb RAM...according to Holmes the processor in my Laptop is actually a desktop processor, guess they didnt know much back in 2005, no wonder I only get about 1hr 15mins on the battery, guess the 17inch screen doesnt help either....but how does the virtual XP run on a 1010?....I also dont wanna waste my time with the download if I can help it....  |
