I think you will have to install winxp on virtual machine like vmware and it should be ok. But same question for me, why using a so old version?

At least with the professional Version of Win7 there is a XP mode included for running XP likewise as in a VM - but maybe there is an issue with the Access to the USB Blaster (assuming you want to programm devices and the QII 6.0 already supported the USB Blaster). My experience with XP Mode were some troubles with devices besides the Standard Printer, stick, ext. drive, .. mainstream.
