Try VMWare, they have a free beta you can get into pretty easily for the next version, for a test platform, you can't beat it.

Thanks Doug. Actually I didnt say whether it was the multiserver version or not. I installed the single server IIS version. As for whether it works on XP or not, I'm not about to rebuild my entire dev enviironment, JUST to try out a new program. That's an awful lot of work and expense. I run a one person business, I have two PCs and that's all (unless you count the 4 386s and 2x486s gathering dust in the cupboard). And the system requirements on Macromedia's site say it works on WinXPPRo with 512MB of RAM (I have 1GB) so I'm taking them at their word. I'm sure they didn't just make that up, and I'm sure they tested it. And besides, as so many people keep saying, thousands of people have it working under WInXPPro, and all I want is to have it work on mine, just like them. I have run a dev environment for years with CF running on a PC under WindowsXP (CF5 was under WIn98) and there's no MM documentation that I've seen that suggests that's no longer possible.
