“Is there an XP mode on these? I need to run some old tax software written for XP before Windows 7 was released. I don't want it installing stuff in c:\windows that may break my Windows 8 system. Windows 7 had an XP mode to run XP programs in their own sandbox. Does Windows 8 have something similar?”
