    woww, Nice! really very useful to developers, which unfortunately are 3 images and not just 1 to 3 versions of IE, but only 400mb each Here smart address bar when it is expanded, it takes 10 seconds for load(if load...) and my history and feed is new and don't have nothing, not saving properly addresses visited would put an option to activate the address bar of intelligent

    Hi... I just went through a pretty hellish experience installing the previous VPC images into VMWare Fusion 2.  See my post at http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-7250 for details; essentially, Microsoft omitted some USB drivers that are normally installed at Windows XP setup time, and can't be easily installed later, even through the Add Hardware wizard. Are these issues already corrected in the 8/28 images?  Or, if not, could they be slated for correction in the next round?  It seems an easy inclusion for Microsoft, and the workarounds involve about 60 manual steps..

    Why is the IE7 VHD XP SP2 instead of XP SP3 like the others?

    The IE7 VPC image wasn't updated.  It's set to expire September 9, 2008.  Please update this with the XP SP3 image.  Thanks.

    @KL you need to tick "Install files for East Asian languages" in the "Control Panel" > "Regional and Language Options", it will promote you to insert the XP setup disc to copy files. It needs additional few hundred MB, it may not be a good idea to include in those image file. If you need the non-unicode program to display the Chinese font, you need to change the setting in "Language for non-Unicode programs" too.

    One word: IETEster http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage It's a little sad that Microsoft can't even come up with something nearly as good as that.

    Hi, thanks for the images. I guess that most of the developers that download them want to focus on testing the IE features, not the eyecandy of windows, so I think that it would be better if those machines were configured for best performance instead of best appearance. It's already too painful having to use a virtual machine to test a different version of IE, so don't add anything that makes it more unpleasant.

    @wai thanks your reply. this is not a convenient method if user havent Windows Dics. I think MS need to consider all user around the world.

    I know Microsoft has this habit of only supporting Microsoft products. but is it asking too much for MS to provide disk images for Parallels, VMWare or QEMU? I don't have a windows machine, and since MS bought and then axed Virtual PC for Mac (oops!), I am running Parallels.

    Microsoft hoidis kinni ajakavast, millest kirjutasime kandes Firefox 3 RC 2 väljas, IE8 Beta 2 tuleb augustis ning IE8 Beta on nüüdseks väljas. Käesolevalt annan ülevaate sellest, mida IE8 Beta 2 uut ja huvitavat pakub, kuid on lood jõudlusega j...
