问题
I currently have MVS2008 and I want to try the 2010 version hoping that it would compile C programs faster. I would like to know if I can have a 2008 installation coexisting with a 2010 installation on the same Windows partition, without conflicts in the Windows environment variables in Win XP.
Thanks a lot...

Yes, I have that setup and it works like a charm for me.
You don't need to have any global environment variables set up - each version of Visual Studio creates its own "Visual Studio 20xx Command Prompt" command that starts a Command Prompt with the right environment set up.
(There's also a batch file, called vcvars32.bat if I recall correctly, that you can run to set up the environment in an existing Command Prompt, or a batch file, etc.)

Both VS versions should coexist peacefully.
