Can both VS2005 and 2008 be installed on XP
-
Because of some reasons I have to use both VS2005 and VS2008 on my computer. if it can, is there any thing I should be careful with?
yes, they can both be installed. i have VC6, VS03, VS05, VS08 and VS10 on mine. they all work fine together.

It would be a good idea to install the products in the order that they were released. In your case, first install VS 2005 followed by VS 2008. :)

i don't need any of the other VCs. but if i could get DOS C 6.0 to run on Win7, i'd have it, too.

They are explicity designed to be installed side by side

I've had a setup like this some 15 years ago, and the only problem I had was the incompatibility between different versions of the MFC. I had to put copies of the correct version into a binary folder and copy my compiled binaries in there during a custom build step to make sure they would be using the correct version. Not sure if such problems still exist, or if they extend to ATL and other runtime libraries.
