I think it is important that you use the MCAD version of Creo View, which is licensed, set this in Options → General → Startup

Then copy both versions of the drawing to the clipboard, open the clipboard, select both drawings and click Open in Creo View.

Click OK in the Annotation Setting box if it appears.

In the viewables tab, select both drawings, right click and select Compare Selected.

Then you should see both drawings overlaid on each other.

Hope this helps
