auto run snapshots???

curently i'm using three VM's running xp with various different versions of IE on them for testing.  As these setups(XP & old IE) are extemely prone to  bugs and the like, I'm wondering if I could take a snaphot of each and set them to install every day to give me a fresh install.

Is this possible to do and if so can somebody give me a few pointers as how to go about it???

Thanks in advance

With snapshots there's no need to re-install every day. Just create a snapshot after initial setup and revert to this snapshot once required. Unfortunately there's no automation for reverting to a snapshot, so you'll need to create e.g. an individual script to do this.

Ok thanks...it was the automation of this task that I was really interested in. I'll think some more about it.
