Windoze 7, 32 bit

Love to get it, cause I still have one desktop that crashed on an XP redo (without a boot disk), and now won't even recognize a third party CD I used previously to get the computer to boot into a periform rescue disk) What gives with this problem??...now I have a machine's CD that won't read rescue disks!!

Almost make me want to upgrade to "7", but I'm not even sure, if I buy the upgrade to my non-working PC that it will even be "seen" in my CD drive so that I can install "7".

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Also I just saw that Microsoft has this program that it says will run many productivity applications on a virtual Windows environment, whatever that means, on computers that are still not upgraded from XP---not including XP Pro.

What gives with this Virtual Product????..... with this approach (can one get away with op's that are Xp but running with more smooth "7" Applications???

Windows Virtual PC is the latest Microsoft virtualization technology. You can use it to run more than one operating system at the same time on one computer, and to run many productivity applications on a virtual Windows environment, with a single click, directly from a computer running Windows 7.
