That's the upgrade I did. I had to re-install XP and the upgrade using the version of Win7 from work. This is Windows 7 Ultimate, from an academic source. And it was the guy working there who told me about being able to use the XP mode. So I guess I'll have to poke around some more. The thing is, if Win7 evicts software that XP can use, it isn't quite XP mode, is it?

Just finished installing another device, for capturing video from VCR to convert to DVD. I've had it for ages, and wondered if I could install it, but it seems to have gone. I'll give it a trail run later.

I have to get the latest Ghost (15) because of the new OS. I think Ghost 12 was out when Vista was in use but Win7 wasn't on the horizon much at the time. And it's one of those bundles (from Fry's) where I pay for it and get the full price back as a rebate. I will end up with a copy of Norton Security that I'll give to someone.
