BWHAHAHAHA ... <sniff> ... Oh, you're such a card. Expecting a Microsoft product to work on anything other than the latest OS when it was released.

Seriously, though ...  One word:

VMWare

Spend the money. If you are doing serious Windows development, there is really nothing better than being able to fire up a clean OS, take a snapshot, do an install, try things out, revert to the snap, install slightly differently and eventually just blow it all away and start from scratch in a few seconds.

You can play around with a gazillion different configurations to figure out what's going on before you commit to actually doing stuff on your main machines.
