.net 1.1 & 2.0 fails to install on W2000

[Z]

Do I need some other program installed on W2000 before I can Install .net
framework?

Hello Z,

Does the latest SP is installed on Windows 2000?
Which error? You can look for the KB by this error info in the microsoft site

Hello Z,

Does the latest SP is installed on Windows 2000? auto updates. SP #4

No error number. Just says failed install.

Same for 1.1 & 2.0

Ensure you have version 3.1 of the windows installer. dotNet 2.0 requires
this and doesn't tell you why it is failing.

I installed windows installer 3.1

Same results for 1.1 & 2.0

I had .net on the computer last year & removed it since it was never needed.
I just purchased a program now that needs it.
Could the control panel un-install have left something to prevent a
re-install?

Thanks,

Which version of the framework. If it was Beta 2.0, search MS for
instructions on removing the beta and hope they work. I had to reformat to
remove Beta 2.0.

Use the W2000 CD & install all the network options. A file is missing.
Then install .net 1.1
