Little correction:
The XP mode can be installed in Ultimate and Pro versions of Win7..
and for such Apps like AC XP mode is unusable - due to the virualized S3 trio video card😉
AC 12 works ok in win7 BTW.
Win7 32 bit is out of a question IMHO - no advantages over XP, only win7 64 bit can be considered as an upgrade

my current setup is XP64 and it's being a pain in the butt as it's constantly conflicting with the RAID array...
