XP Mode Greyed out

The steps are quite clear, and simple to follow. Is your hardware qualified to run XPMode?
 
You mentioned that XP Mode is grayed out or dimmed, can you elaborate a bit further. Did you get it installed successfully?
 
Your CPU needs to support virtualization and it needs to be enabled in the bios. I think I had the same issue before enabling it in the bios

Windows Virtual PC requires processors capable of hardware-assisted virtualization with AMD-V?, Intel? VT or VIA? VT turned on in the BIOS
 
I had problems at first because I installed it in the reverse order. The microsoft website has percise instructions and it will work.
