The Hardware is where the Vitalization is and if this isn't supported by either the CPU or the M'Board you need to change the NB to get this feature.

Also depending on which version of 7 you have loaded XP Mode may not be available you need the Ultimate or Professional Versions of 7 to have XP Mode. Even then it doesn't come with the 7 Install you need to download it from M$ here

What does this mean?

Do you mean that the processor does not have virtualization extensions? The new version of VPC does not require this.

Do you mean that you don't have a copy of Virtual PC? Download it, and the XP VM.

Do you mean that your version of Windows 7 does not include XP mode? (Only in Professional & ↑ )You are stuck, then.
