If you downloaded them from a legal source, the instructions will be at that
site.

Yes VS2003 is available from MSDN. Here is copy and paste of the info from

Description
Built to address today's most challenging software development needs, Visual
Studio .NET 2003 enhances, further refines, and is highly compatible with
its predecessor. Visual Studio .NET 2003 includes a complete range of
capabilities from modelers that aid in visually composing the most complex
of enterprise-class applications to deploying an application on the smallest
of devices. In use by companies of every size across the world, Visual
Studio .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework provide a powerful,
sophisticated, end-to-end tool for designing, developing, debugging, and
deploying secure applications for Microsoft Windows® and the
Web-applications that are robust and easy to use.

Visual Studio .NET 2003 contains an enhanced version of the .NET Framework.
The .NET Framework version 1.1 builds upon the previous version with new
capabilities, enhancements, and improvements to documentation. With
integrated support for the .NET Compact Framework, Visual Studio .NET 2003
brings mobile and embedded devices such as the Pocket PC, as well as other
devices powered by the Microsoft Windows CE .NET operating system, to .NET.
Now, developers can use the same programming model, development tools, and
skills to build applications that span from small devices to the largest
data center.

Instructions
An ISO-9660 image file is an exact representation of a CD, including the
content and the logical format. The most common use of an image file is to
write it to a blank CD-R resulting in an identical copy of the original CD
including file name and volume label information. ISO Images can also be
extracted directly to a file location by many CD-R utilities. For more
information about image files, please visit the MSDN FAQ.

Thank you harry,
It's an MSDN subscriber download.
I work for a school and our school has the MSDN subscribtion.
My professor asked me to find out how can we install ISO files, and that is
the reason I asked.
It's completely legit, so I guess now I have to tell my Prof. to wander
within the site.
Is it possible someone can give me an idea rather than directing me to go to
the website.
I searched on the microsoft site, no luck there. It only gave me as to what
is in ISO files.
