Installing VS2003/VS2005 on x64
I just built a new box - AMD64 4200+.
Like a fool, I bought and installed winxppro 32 (OEM) and then remembered that x64 trial was out there. Wasted 150 bux, but thats another story. . . (will MS trade me the diskset/torn-off sticker for an oem copy of x64? probably not. . . oh well)
Got everything running, including the linksys WM54G wireless. and the machine screams. . .
So now to put my development environment on. . .
I own VS2003 Ent. Arch. and have the latest TFS 2005 beta.
Currently work is standardized on .Net 1.1 so I have to be able to build/compile for that and I am not wanting to command line, so I need to have the 1.1 components available in the IDE.
We don't use c++, just C# and VB.
I would like to install and play with the TFS. I have a 32bit Server 2003 for the TF Services and Sharepoint, etc. . .
I guess my questions are. . .
Can I get away with just installing the 2005 development environment? Will that let me also specifically target the .Net 1.1 platform? Or do I need to install both.
Note: all of the code I write for production gets uploaded to version control and an automated .Net 1.1 build system.
If I need to install the VS2003, is there anything I need to be aware of when installing on the XP x64?
In general, is there anything I need to be aware of?
thanks in advance!
