running SW2003 and SW2004 on the same machine.

I've installed 2004 on my machince but I would like to still use 2003.
Is it possible to install 2003 on a different drive without affecting
2004 on my C: drive?

 

I have 2003 & 2004 on the same drive, just different folders - no problem.
I had 2003 first, and upon loading 2004, found that it picked up a lot of
the registry settings from 2003. This can be good, but does not entirely
separate them. If you go to separate drives, I don't know if even then it
will keep them totally apart - you'll just have to try it.

Scott,

Do a "new install" to a new folder, not an "upgrade".

In fact, never do an "upgrade". It doesn't work right (never has)

Currently, I'm running 2001+, 2003, and 2004, on the same machine. No
problem.


Regards

Mark

 

I did it on an XP Pro box.

One glitch I ran into was that the printing of single sheet drawgings from
2003 became impossible except as pdf files.

Both are on my program file drive in separate folders. They share some
registry settings.
