SOLVED Windows XP Mode not activating!!

[ricky28]

Hi

I've installed Windows XP Mode (Virtual PC) on my Windows 7 Home Premium (x64) from Microsoft website and was perfectly installed. But it started asking for the product key (for activation). After all reading I gave online, I thought the problem is with my OS. So upgraded to Windows 7 Professional (x64). But still, when I log in to my Windows Virtual PC, it's still asking for the activation key or the product key.

I'm wondering if someone could help me with this problem.

Thank You
Ricky

Check to see virtualization has to be enabled.

Also I suggest you uninstall and then reinstall now that you have Professional. I haven't installed in a while but I remember it took 3 installs to complete when I did it: Virtual PC, XP mode, and update I believe was the 3rd one.

Microsoft Virtual PC - XP mode
