You can in a way, but you will need to download a lot of XP drivers from Dell to run XP on a Windows7 computer.
You can not just swipe out Windows7 for XP.

Some webcams and programs require additional software, although that should be installed with the webcam if things are right.

But is does not harm to check if your Java, Flash and Quicktime software are installed and up to date.
But certainly check your DirectX software, since all video applications, including webcams, use DirectX for video processing.

Try downloading the latest DirectX version and install it (Windows XP: DirectX 9.0c - Windows Vista: DirectX 10).

They will work with Windows 7 Professional or higher due to a built in "compatibility mode"

All you need to do is... upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. Right Click on the setup icon for the game. Go to properties. Look for compatibility mode. Run it in windows XP mode

And there ya go :)

If you own Windows7 Ultimate, you can install and run http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/
Virtual PC from Microsoft free of charge - which is basically a virtual version of XP built inside your Windows 7, this should help and probably get it working, otherwise if you right click the setup.exe before running and goto the compatibility tab and set this to "Windows XP" that may aslo fix your problem.

First check it compatibility with windows7 before installing or downloading. Install windows7 upgrade utility that show how your hardware supported to windows7.

Good Luck

Either that or run 7 in XP mode. Here are some links to help you.

Read this explanation from HP how to install that printer in windows 7:

Here is how to Install them so they work. Download your XP driver you wish to install. If it's in a zip/rar file then extract it to your desktop. You should have a simple .exe file sitting on your desktop to install the drivers, as normal for XP. Right click the .exe file and select "Properties". Then select the tab called "Compatibility" Now check the box next to "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" Make sure "Windows XP Service Pack 2" is highlighted. Now apply the settings and run the installer. This should work for most drivers, but not all. make sure you install and run all.any programs as Administrator.

You will need to back up your files and settings on another hard drive or device and do a full installation of Windows xp. Windows 7 does not support upgrading or downgrading to Windows xp at this time.

no need it will definitely work on windows 7. because it has xp mode that run all the xp compatible applications in windows 7. u know that windows 7 is really amzing.....
