This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
>Two weeks ago there was a brief thread here about this - how to get a setup made with this version of IS to install on XP. XP is not on the list of the OSes it offers, and it really won't. Don't know what's the message exactly, it simply refuses to install.

>Is it possible that VFP7 is sold with an installer which simply falls short and refuses to work with the latest-and-greatest OS?

>I'll solve this problem somehow - the final build will probably be done with a full version. In the meantime I'm delivering the preliminary versions using ISLE, and the customer can't try them out on more than half of his machines, which is a major (or rather collonel) PITA.

I am able to install on Windows XP when I choose "Any OS". See C:\Program Files\InstallShield\InstallShield Express Visual FoxPro Limited Edition\Program\0409\ITargetSysReqOSVersion.htm You might be able to hack something.
