My XP computer finally died. I have an old Window 7 machine that is 64 bit. How are you all running your WinEVM?
Thanks
Tim

Five years ago I bought a refurbished laptop on ebay and asked the seller to load a 32 bit version of WIN7. If you have the 64 bit WIN7 Pro you can use the XP emulator https://www.google.com/amp/s/helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/windows-7-xp-mode/amp/

Since I use the laptop for little else the 32 bit version works well for me.

Another option is to install VirtualBox and install XP on it. I have been doing that for many years on both Win7 and Win10.
