Compatiabily Mode on X64

Dec 20th, 2007

Hi,

I'm trying to install an app which requires XP32 sp2 on x64.

I tried to use the "Run in compatibility mode" feature, but I only get winXP32 as an option - no SP2.

I've installed the X64 SP2 on my X64 OS - No difference.

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Eran

Are you having a problem with the app if you select WINXP32?

What is the app level dependency on SP2? Most unusual.

What is your underlying problem? As much detail as possible please.
