I cannot get .Net Framework to Install

[mazzie]

I need to install .Net Framework 1.1 for a job I am working on.
I recently upgraded from Windows ME to Windows XP Home Edition.
Everything is running great except I cannot install .Net Framework 1.1

I did have it on my computer (from a previous install on Windows ME
and it ran fine) I did get it to download once while in Windows Xp but
then it wouldn't install.
This is all after I upgraded to Windows XP (which I had paid a techie
from HP to do for me).

I have tried installing it from microsoft.com, and a CD
but to no avail.

I get various error messages:

From Donetfx
Inernal Error 2908
(7048B-5591-4C80-42BB-BOE5-F2COCEE02C7A)

And...Erroe 1935. An error occured during the installation
of assembly Microsoft.

Just to let you know
-I uninstalled the download and rebooted and tried again and again.
-I wasn't running any anti-virus or spyware software at time
of installation
-When I tried to dowload my Microsoft Updates, everything
installed correctly (not high priority) EXCEPT .Net Framework 1.1
was not installed and it did not give me a reason why.

I cannot work until this issue is resolved and though I don't expect you to fix it, any steering in the right direction, would be a GREAT thing.

Thank you for reading this far.

Do you have the ability to use windows update ?
If so, Connect and see if you can pull it down automatically.


Edit: When you went from home to Xp did you do a fresh install including a reformat or just the upgrade ?

 

[mazzie]

The technician updated the BIOS and then we did
an Upgrade.

I can use Windows Update. Everything is updated.

Edit: If you are on a XP pro machine you have to have ASP.NET as well.

Mazzie, Did you try the link in Edit2 ?
That blog has a tool that will help you completely get rid of any .NET software so you can start from scratch.

You are my HERO!

I downloaded the link you offered above and
lo and behold it worked!! Instantly!

After I downloaded the cleaner I reinstalled
my .Net Framework 1.1 and it installed immediately
without incident.

I have been working on this with techs from my job
for almost a week now...When I finally called them
(I work in NY they are in Calif) and told them it was
fixed they were thrilled because they were all stumped
...I could have taken all the credit for myself...hehehehe
but I pointed them to you and told them what you did~
THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

You have just sent this gal back to work...!

All the best,
mazz
