    Is it possible to install a registry key that allows Windows 7 to install updates that are supposed to be targeted for Windows Embedded POSReady 7? If so, what keys would have to be modified and what values?

    Windows 7 is more sophisticated than XP

    why the rush?
    we shall know see how to handle updates when they restrict them to Embedded

    Ah. I have done some digging on the internet and apparently you can change windows 7 updates to install on any windows 7 family versions via a config file (don't remember the name of the file though), however I am hoping that I can create an unofficial update similar to winxpsp4 where it installed PoSReady 2009 updates on any Xp version for windows 7.
