I checked that, but there was some other issue with that that made it useless.

Yeah, running 16-bit in win7 is difficult (next to impossible?).
We ended up using virtualized xp machines for 16-bit applications at work :)

XP Mode *is* a virtualized XP Pro instance.

I'm unaware of the limitation Walter speaks of. I know it won't do hardware graphics acceleration, but other than that, I think it works just like an XP system, except the application windows are displayed like they were running on your win7 system.

Yes, XP mode is a virtualized xp, but running 16-bit virtualized applications in a virtualized xp mode on win7 just doesn't work like it should :)
Good to see we're not the only one with this problem.
