Two versions on one machine?

Two versions on one machine?

Two versions on one machine?

(OP)
Can one install both Autocad 2005 AND 2002 on the same machine? What, if any, complications could one expect?
Thanks

Works fine on my machine.

You should be fine. ACAD 2002, 2000i, and 2000 do not play well together. ACAD 2004 and 2005 do not play well either.

RE: Two versions on one machine?

I've had two versions operate successfully, though not the exact same versions you're talking about.  We did it with 2000i and 2002.  As long as both STAYED on the machine, everything was fine.  Problems developed when the 2000i was removed.  It made the remaining 2002 copy unstable.  Reinstalling the 2002 solved the problem.
