NET framework

Hi
I want to install sqlexpress which needs at least .net 2 SP2. So I removed my previosly installed Visual Studio 2003 and tried to install NET 3.5.

No success....is there any way to install ANY .NET framework on Vista 64?

Thanks
Michael

Re: NET framework

so I could install a hotfix and then NET 3.5. But still while trying to install sqlexpress 2008 it says to reboot. reboot doesn't change anything. Therefore I tried to install more updates and SP1&2. No luck...it wanted to install 61 updates! and failes after around 3 hours. Only rolling back took another 4 hours

Any ideas on how to get around the sqlexpress REBOOT message?

Thanks Michael
