Virtual PC (Program Developed on XP Runs on W7 Problem)

Question

I have a developed a C++ application using 32 bit and it create a executable file. This project has uses some external library like window socket 32bit, Qt GUI and boost library. The dll is located at same directory with the executable.

I wonder how can i run this application on window 7.

MY window 7 version is Home Premium 64 bit. Therefore, i cannot install the XP mode from Virtual PC but some one them reported that using Sun virtual box is functional.

I have try to troubleshoot the executable file using program compatibility but the problem doesn't solve.

Any program that can check external dependencies and identified the issues of running my program on window 7 ?

Please help.

Thanks.

64 bit editions of windows can run 32 bit applications fine. You just need to install the 32 bit versions of the needed libraries and it will work.
