I am going to get win 7. pro 64 Bit so it will see all my 4. GB of ram.

I am runing win xp 32 Bit so it only sees 3 GB and all my programs are for win xp.

Does win 7. pro have the win xp mode built in?
 
You most likely won't have an issue running your XP software; even without XP mode.
 
Thanks but

So if I get win 7. PRO 64 Bit I can install a program that I had for win xp and it would run even if I don't get win xp mode HOW?

Why have win xp mode what is the diferance?

It's a marketing thing. All it is is a virtual machine.
 
Right click on the program's executible. Go to properties. Run in Windows XP SP3 mode.

You can also use the Windows compatiability checker on your current machine, which will tell you what issues you will have with Win 7 if any.
