3.2.3 Setup Procedure when using Windows XP Mode

This section describes the setup procedure when Windows XP Mode is used. Follow this
setup procedure only if you use Windows XP Mode and after you read the following notes
carefully.
In the case of the S model, Windows XP Mode is not provided.
< NOTE >
• A virtual environment with license authenticated Windows® XP installed is
contained in this product as Windows XP Mode.
• Windows XP Mode is a feature intended for running Windows® XP applications
that cannot run in Windows® 7. This feature must be used as a last resort to
maintain compatibility for applications. Use this feature only if you cannot resolve
the compatibility issue of an application in any other ways.
• It is not guaranteed that all Windows® XP applications can run in Windows XP
Mode.
• When using Windows XP Mode, install the main memory card that satisfies the
following sizes:
If the OS is a 32-bit version: 2 GB or more
If the OS is a 64-bit version: 3 GB or more
• Windows® 7 comes with the Multilingual User Interface (MUI) for the host OS, but
Windows XP Mode can only provide an English version of Windows® XP.
< If Windows XP Mode is not used >
The files used for setting up Windows XP Mode include a virtual hard disk file for the guest
OS and therefore occupy about 700 MB of disk space. If Windows XP Mode is not used, we
recommend that you follow the procedure below to delete the directory storing those files.
1. If you are not logged on to the computer as an administrator account, log on to the computer
as an administrator account.
2. Start the command prompt.
・Click Start and point to All Programs.
・Click Accessories.
・Right-click Command Prompt to show a menu. On the menu, click Run as
administrator.
(If the administrator account you used for log on is a built-in administrator account,
simply click Command Prompt.)
・If you see the User Account Control window, click Yes.
3. At the command prompt, type the following and press Enter.
rmdir /s C:¥HITACHI¥XP_Mode
