Step 5 v. 7.2 will run under Windows XP, as shown on this Release note: What is new in STEP 5 V7.2? Support of the new Microsoft Windows XP operating system STEP 5 V7.2 will execute under Windows XP. This support ensures that the optional packages (such as GRAPH 5/II), as well as the COM packages that can be started via STEP 5, will execute under Windows XP. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier
