I noticed on the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 download page that Windows XP
SP1 is not a supported environment. Does this mean that the 2.0 Framework
will not work on an XP system with only SP1 installed?

The reason I ask is because I know someone who attempted to install the 2.0
Framework on three of his Windows XP SP1 computers, and each time the
install completely froze his system, although, after rebooting, it turns out
the Framework was installed successfully.

Thanks - Amos.
 
Hi Amos,

That's a good topic for you: http://blogs.msdn.com/brada/archive/2006/01/16/513018.aspx
Briefly: .. While the .NET Framework 2.0 may install on SP1 or XP Gold, these
will not be supported configurations....
