Window 7 /SH4 Question

I have been told by computer geeks that one must have Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate in order to run older games such as SH4. True?

Thanks.

No, One of my co-workers installed windows 7 home premium on his home computer and was able to play some of his older games better then he could when he had XP home installed on his computer.

Win 7 Pro and Ultimate and Enterprise are for running WinXP mode (with VirtualPC). Not sure if that enables 16-bit stuff to run, which is normally a no-go with Windows x64.
