If you are a web designer or web developer, then you know how important it is that the sites you design look and function the same in multiple browser environments. This is easily achieved by simply downloading the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Gecko, Konqueror, Opera and what ever you choose. But what about Microsoft Internet Explorer? It is next to impossible to run side-by-side versions of IE. Most designers use more than one PC to accomplish this. There are ways to hack earlier installations of Mirosoft IE to get the desired versions running on the same PC. This will not work however with Windows Vista. However, there is a relatively simple solutions to this problem.

First, you will need to download and install Microsoft VPC 2007. This a very simple install and shouldn’t take over 10 munites at the most.

Then, you need to download and extract this free version of XP released by Microsoft and specially designed to run on VPC 2007.

Once you have these files extracted on your hard drive, simply open VPC 2007, create a new virtual machine and point it to your extracted files.

That’s it…Technorati Tags: accomplish, aspx, browser environment, Community, CSS, designers, gecko, hack, installations, internet explorer, konqueror, latest versions, microsoft, mirosoft, mozilla firefox, opera, safari, simple solutions, vpc 2007, Web Design, Web Development, Webmasters Resources, web designer, web developer
