Hi, Is it possible to have IE7 and IE8 installed on the same PC for testing sites.

If so how cause everytime i try from various locations it won't install as theres a newer version already installed.

Cheers

Tony

Hi,

I've tried IEtester and it keeps crashing.

I will try the compatibility method.
