Just checked and I'm currently on Sys Mech Pro version 12.7.1.2 Depending on what product you buy, it should automatically update you to the latest version during your 12-month purchase period.

Microsoft is about to quit providing any kind of support for Windows XP, including updating drivers and virus protection. I'm not 100% sure of the exact date, but I think it's sometime in April, 2014. While your asus certainly SHOULD have the power to run XP, I am not at all familiar with that machine. If it is a tablet or a netbook of some kind, I would advise you not to mess with it - unless you are VERY savvy when it comes to PC hardware and software installations. Otherwise, you run the risk of damaging your current software installation which may end up making it useless and certainly would void any warrantees you have on your machine.

You know what I'm curious of. If you can upgrade it to Windows Vista. My brother keeps saying I'll have to do it eventually and I wonder about that if what he says is true. Though with the introduction of so many netbooks carrying XP to the market, I wonder what Microsoft is going to do about their plans to stop updating XP.

Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft so you will be experiencing problems in time. Most people are upgrading to Windows 7 or Windows 8+

It came with windows 7. I emailed the company and told them the situation and they sent an XP hard drive free of charge and didn't want the Windows 7 back. They sent it next day delivery. They were very prompt and helpful.

I'm having another issue. It seems that the XP operating system was neither preloaded nor included as a separate software pack. Also, I'm missing the USB mouse. Anyone else have these issues/

It is compatible with 7 and both home and professional XP. Hope this helps. I have used this product for about 5 years on pc's and laptops and have not had a problem yet.

Have used it with Windows XP no problem (since upgraded to Windows 7). Agree with Jaysen Huff.. do a clean install of your XP disks - remember, these hubs have been around since BEFORE Windows XP.

On this particular one for sale, Windows XP Home Edition SP3 is pre-loaded. You would personally have to upgrade it to Windows 7.

This is the more universal version. It lets you upgrade from xp or higher. This is consumer version. At least what we are selling is , We do not know what other sellers have to offer. .

No clue about Windows *.x. I'm still running XP64 as there hasn't been any reason for me to upgrade...and when it do, it will likely be to Windows 7 and not the newer versions. If Diamond is still supporting this product, I would suggest checking their website for current driver information.

It's 8.1, came installed already. I am really happy with 8.1. I'm sorta dreading windows 10. I've gotten used to 8.1, and I really really like it.

Mine had Windows 7, and I believe it was described as such. I recommend it over XP. Mine also had a British keyboard, with several characters switched (the " and @ trade places, for example), and was not described as such. I suspect mine was an exception, but you may want to check. If there is an @ over the 2, it's American. Overall I'm very happy with the machine's specs and condition, especially at the price.

As I read it, after I got it is NO. It will not update anything unless, you completely format your hard drive, since it is for new computers, and not an upgrade. That is what I wanted and when I got this I couldn't even understand what I was supposed to do. You have to buy another program to get ready to install this one. So my answer would be no upgrade for any operating system. I wanted it for XP, but have a Vista too, NADA, as I read it. I sent it back and Amazon is amazing in handling returns. Thanks Amazon.............

Why not just stick with XP Pro. When I got my Dell, I just asked for it to have Windows XP Pro installed as that's what I had on my old computer and I liked it a lot better than the newer (7&8) systems. The Dell came as requested AND ALSO WITH an XP Pro system install disk so that if I ever had to restore it I could. It pays to ask! I don't care if XP and XP pro aren't going to be supported. IT WORKS FOR ME! Lonnie

The User Guide says that it is XP compatible. I have not tried it. Works fine with Windows 7

Why would you want to? XP being phased out by MS in April. Thereafter, no security; no drivers; no updates.
