Well I do have solution for that now!
All you have to do is to install the Windows Virtual PC Application together with the Windows XP Mode Application.
-----
Using Windows XP Mode, you can run programs that were designed for Windows XP on computers running Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate editions. Windows XP Mode is not supported on Windows 8.
Programs can run in both Windows XP Mode and in Windows 7.
How does Windows XP Mode work?
Windows XP Mode works in two ways—both as a virtual operating system and as a way to open programs within Windows 7. It runs in a separate window on the Windows 7 desktop, much like a program, except it's a fully-functional, fully-licensed version of Windows XP. In Windows XP Mode, you can access your physical computer's CD/DVD drive, install programs, save files, and perform other tasks as if you were using a computer running Windows XP.
When you install a program in Windows XP Mode, the program appears in both the Windows XP Mode list of programs and in the Windows 7 list of programs, so you can open the program directly from Windows 7.

On my last testings, after first run, the debugger locks the PDB and vs2003 cannot modify or open it so you could never recompile it. Only solution was to restart visual studio each debug.
