Is it possible to have Media Center 10 & 11 on the same PC?

I tried but, when I use Media Center 10 it gives me this
 error: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error has caused the program to terminate in an unusual way  :)

Yes, but make sure you install in different directories.

I tried two diferent directories:
C:\Program Files\J River\Media Center\ - MC 10
C:\Program Files\J Rivers\Media Center 11

The same error comes up then, it closes MC 10

Just to let you know that I had the exact same problem when installed MC.11, even though I did it in different directories (but both inside the JRiver directory in Program Files).

Don't know if it could be important, but the only "special" thing that I recall was that I ran MC.11 right after the installation ended without trying to run MC.10 again and, when I first ran MC.11, the application notified me that it had found a database in a different instalation and asked me if I wanted to convert such library to use it with MC.11. I clicked "yes" and MC.11 ran perfect. I could not open MC.10 again. Perhaps I should have clicked "no" and build a new database for MC.11 using an MC.10 library backup?

Not a big deal in my case because I'm now using MC.11 full time.
