Hi,

I have a website that I developed with VS2003 on a laptop that is now about 5 years old and is dying.

I now have a desktop with Windows 7.

I wanted to install VS2003 in XP mode but my install discs are giving an error.

Also I got a copy of VS2003 when I worked for a company years back.

So how can I get a copy VS2003 to install in XP mode?

Malcolm

You got a copy from a company you used to work? Seems like piracy. Please stop asking for illegal things in this site. – vmarquez Nov 23 at 0:38

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form.

Ebay, and you know the rest...

Since you already have licenses. Then I see no reason to use the other media. Phone MS and ask them if you're unsure.

Assuming you are running your own small business, you might want to apply to Microsoft's BizSpark program, in order to gain access to MS full backcatalog of software, which I beleive includes VS 2003: http://www.microsoft.com/BizSpark/
