Right now, my copy of 7.1 is unusable - and I'll have to get an admin
to clean it up to the point where it is usable again. I can manually
make it mostly usable by altering the system environment variables -
but that's a bit of a pain. To top it off, the 4.2 install doesn't
quite work properly either - probably for the same reason. It seems to
go through mapping and PAR OK, but I have to create the downloadables
on another system. We fought for a week with every part of the
toolchain until we switched to another workstation to create the
bitstream files - no errors, just corrupt binaries.

When I'm more or less done maintaining the old design, I'm probably
going to just wipe both off, and install the latest version again.

Would a VM like VMWare or VPC do the trick, keep your OS with ISE
version installed in different virtual boxes. As long as only one runs
all the machine resources are available to that VM guest, whether its
Linux or Windows.
