has anyone managed to do anything with efuses on spartan-6?

I expected to use an old parallel cable since I usually have much need
for jtag, but efuses are only
supported with platform cable usb II, so I got bought one and got it
installed and working on my 64bit
win7 machine only to find out that efuse operations are only supported
on 32bit winxp
(atleast that is what the error mesage says)

no problem I though, I'll just find an old XP machine, but I have now
tried three different 32bit xp machines,
every possible combination of ports/cables/hubs, driver installs/
uninstall/reinstall, ISE versions and every
webcase suggestion I could find and every time I get the same result,
an "unknown usb device"

Is it actually possible to install platform cable use II on winxp?,
and is an obsolete OS on old hardware really
the only option for programming efuses on spartan-6
