Well Hardware-assisted virtualization (HAV) a part of the requirement for Running XP mode.

While I've not tried to force an install of XP mode on that machine (Running W7 Pro) yet as I'm waiting to get the Heat sink replaced (Later Today). I'll probably try once that is done as currently that system is Overheating a lot (Which was a preexisting issue even under XP so not due to W7) and as such is a little slow and unstable.

I didn't do that under the RC (Something I'm kicking myself over) as I had a dualboot with XP at that time.
