Whidbey is the nickname for VS 2005 (beta).
Although there have been reports of Visual Studio .NET 2003 and Visual
Studio 2005 (beta) peacefully coexisting on a single PC, you should remember
that you are dealing with a beta in Visual Studio 2005 and that there are no
guarantees.
When you said "i want to install 2003 on whidbey" did you by any chance mean
Longhorn? If so, adding a beta OS into the mix increases the probability of
trouble.
Bottom line: if you do real work on the PC, keep the beta software off it.
